swedish blue duck

I got my first 2 ever ducks March 3 this year so they're both a little over a month old now. And I need help finding out they're genders. Our vet doesn't vet and I'm not going to pay for blood work since it's too expensive. I got them at a farm shop, a khaki campbell and a Swedish blue. The...

Drakes looking to find a new home. With a heavy heart, it's come time to rehome my sweet drakes bc they won't leave my sweet chicks alone. They have 3 hens they can't seem to get enough of, so it's unfortunately time for this to happen. I have 2 white fawn runners, a mallard, and a Swedish Blue...

(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? -I actually have had chickens before, but originally found this site because I got ducklings and there was a lot of helpful stuff here so I thought I’d join! (2) How many chickens do you have right now? -2 ducklings (3) What...

Took this vid about 20 minutes ago of my Swedish Sweethearts in the pool. I thought it was cool being a video in slo-mo of Goose flapping his wings..!

Hey guys! I just read that Swedish Blue drakes have green bills, and now I am concerned one of my Swedes is a boy because one has a green tint to their Bill. Can anyone confirm or deny that this green tint is indicating a male duck?

Hi, My blue Swedish female duck has layed one egg everyday for the last 23 days. Is that normal? Are they just really good layers or is it just my duck? I read on line that blue Swedish lay between 100-180 eggs a year. I think she’s layed at least 75 eggs in the last 3 months. I was just...

Saw this on my lil baby Swedish Blue’s back, above the tail but behind the wing. What is it!? I think it’s in the area of what duck biologists call the “thing that produces floaty duck oil”. Is that what this is, or..??

I have three ducks (a rouen, a swedish, and a cayuga). All of them are same age and started laying at the same time. I get 3 eggs a day but all of them are white and look the same. Is there any way I can tell whose egg is whose?

I noticed that my two Swedish Blues have been ‘missing’ from the rest of the flock when I let them out the past two or three mornings. Eventually they reappear outside, so I wasn’t too concerned. Yesterday I had the day off from work so I had more time to investigate. Both Swedish Blues were in...

Doing our first time incubating eggs and we have 3 signs of life.. The mother is a Pekin and the Father is a Blue Swedish. I am curious to see peoples photos of their feathered Pekin X Swedish cross breeds.. If you have them please show. Looking forward to see if i can hatch these 3 eggs out...
