rouen

We had an amazingly successful duckling hatch last week- so much so that we have more ducks than we need or want! The ducks are straight run (we’re not confident enough to try to sex them ourselves) and are a mix of mostly rouen and various runners. They hatched between 12/1-12/3 so they’re a...

Please help, we were recently given 11 ducks of various breeds, and are trying to figure out what breeds and ducks/drakes we have. Can Black Swedish have black spots on their chest? Does green head automatically mean male? Are the two light ones Silver Appleyard?

Hi, my Rouen female is under weight and it’s getting closer to winter. I’m not sure how to get her to gain more weight. This morning I went out to feed them and she was shivering and it’s only about 38 degrees out. I’ve tryed everything I can think of. Any ideas? Thank you

I have one Rouen and two Swedish Blue ducks, about 6 weeks old. I give them a bowl (about 5 ounces) of starter feed, another bowl of lettuce in water, and a bowl of cooked oatmeal in water (also about 5 ounces) TWICE a day, plus a few handfuls of meal worms. They devour everything in minutes...

Help! A bit of back story - We tried to hatch six Minature Silver Appleyards, we unfortunately only hatched one little duck which meant a quick panic trip to a local farm to buy some more ducklings to keep the little one company (who was only happy when being played youtube videos of other...

We lost our female Rouen today :( and need a new companion for our male. I am looking for a mature sized female to get as soon as possible. She doesn't have to be a Rouen but preferably a duck of similar size. We are located in the greater Philadelphia area.

Help! Can anyone Determine what sex these ducks are? I’m so confused. They are about 4 months old. Any help would be appreciated- thanks in advance 🙂🦆

HELP! Something attacked my duck! (Could of been another duck, I dont know!) He has sores on the back of neck and is bleeding. He is also holding his head funny, and not moving head or neck. He is walking a bit, but mostly sitting. Not eating (even mealworms, his fav) or drinking. His poop is white.

Picked up a couple ducks from the assorted ducklings at Tractor Supply back in April, and I initially thought that she was a Rouen like the other duckling we got. However, she's significantly smaller and darker than our Rouen. I know Hoover (who supplies Tractor Supply) sells Golden 300...

Hey All! I've got 5 ducks- 1 Rouen drake, 2 Pekin hens, and 2 Khaki Campbell hens. The Pekin hens are a little over a year old and were raised together since day olds in the brooder. We had an Orptington drake brought up with them that we lost several months ago to a predator. Since then, one...

I have two sweet rouen males, 4 months old, that need a home. I ended up with a bad number of males to females, unfortunately. These two have only ever known each other and are pretty bonded. It's heartbreaking to part with them and I really want to make sure they'll go to a good home. I'm...

Hi my Rouen female has bumble foot. I worked on her foot last night, when I was done I put copaiba and coconut oil on the wound and wrapped it. This is what it looks like this morning. Does it look like I got all the infection? Do I need to work on her some more? Thank you

Hello everyone! I got my first ducks this year. Ten hatchery assortment straight run. I think I got 5 rouens and 5 pekins. They are now one month old. They have all been eating the same food and everything, but I noticed the Pekins have put on a lot of fat. Given the opportunity to forage, they...

My family and I have recently started raising ducks, and while we were planning on 4, an unplanned male was shipped to us and we're now up to 10 to allow for 4 females per drake. Our most recent shipment arrived today, all females consisting of a Blue Swedish, a Welsh Harlequin, a Buff, and a...

Unfortunately we have too many Rouen drakes.. they are both friendly(will eat out of your hand) and coop trained to come home at night for safety. We need both gone but if someone can only take one that’s okay too. Located in Southern IL/ Southern IN.. willing to travel a little if needed.

What a journey my babes and I have had the past 2 days! I have recently posted a few threads about how to deal with some drakes beating up on one of my girls... an update: I brought her inside today to splash in the tub and get some cuddles (with mealworms of course) and she was all fine but...

How much do a male and female together, khaki Campbell ducks go for? They are fully grown. Also how much would a Rouen duck age around 3-4 months old male go for?

Location: Bozeman, Montana area. We will drop them off or meet you in town. My schedule is a bit unpredictable so we'll have to discuss a date and time. General info: Been trying to hold on to my flock for as long as I can, but time is up and I can only keep a few. I have 8 hens and 2 ducks...

Hey all! I'm a new duck momma of 2 Pekin drakes ( almost positive both are drakes ) they are I believe 10 weeks old. I'm ordering 10 Ducklings tomorrow to add to my flock! Breeds include Cayuga, Rouen, Welsh Harlequin, buff & black swedish..should all 10 be hens? That would make for a 1:5 Drake...

We just rescued four male domestic ducks from a park does anyone know of anyone in the Kansas City metro who would want them? Three production Rouens drakes and want I think is a silver Swedish drake.
