Hello, just a simple question… when do drakes start getting the green heads & white line around the neck?

Hello, back with another question! My Rouen Drake is 3 months old & I notice in their run there’s feathers & they look like his. I have 2 khaki Campbell hens so they are just that brown color where as the feathers appear dark grey or more like his color. Is it normal for him to be losing...

Update!…. So I let my babies out free for about 2 hours with supervision. They didn’t want to leave the coop but I got them to come out & they enjoyed the freedom! They nibbled on some grass & walked for around for a little, couldn’t get them to go in their pool but I will try again tomorrow...

Hello, I have 1 drake Rouen & 2 Campbell hens. Drake is 3 months old & the girls are 2 months. I don’t usually let them free range because I’m paranoid about any outside animals getting them so they’re in their coop all day. I share a yard with others since I live in an apartment & we all just...

Ok I’m always on here asking questions but I am a new duck owner & would love to be educated. I google a lot but I love to hear everyone else’s experience, what works for them & what they suggest. I have an almost 3 month old Rouen Drake & a pair of 2 month old khaki Campbell hens. I know it’s...

Sorry *quackish, kept messing that one up lol

Before his mate died who was also Rouen I could definitely tell she was female, her quacks were very much quackinsh & he made little peep whistle noises, so that made it easy to tell he was male. They both were very yappy talkative ducks but since I have gotten him the female khakis(which are a...

Ok hello everyone, I am a mother to a Rouen(drake, atleast I thought) & 2 khaki campbells(hens). I’ve had my Rouen since he was a baby & he hatched 11/6. At first I noticed his head was turning a tint greenish but now when I look at him I may think that he is a she now. I see no green & I feel...

Lol & well the lows here in Florida are 48 over night so I am worried they will be a little cold.

Don’t shoot me for having them together, I was inside with them setting up the crate for the girls. So I was supervising them & they seemed to get along ok. The girls will be in a crate with their own heat lamp & be seperate over nights.

I have one 8 week old drake & two 6 week old ducklings.

Can someone tell me signs that a duck is being aggressive or bullying other ducks? I have a male Rouen who is 8 weeks old, his mate just died. I just got 6 week old khaki Campbell hens for him. I want to introduce them to each other but I’m scared that he might hurt them or may not like them...

So the females could be older than him & he would still be ok? And unfortunately my husband may have given them too much grit in their bowl. He went to the store & bought what he thought was food for them & he just gave it to them without running it by me. I get up yesterday morning to check on...

I’m going to just order more ducklings, I have a crate already set up from when my Rouens were babies. My drake is in his pen that my husband made & it’s pretty spacious so I’m going to put the ducklings crate in the pen so that way they can just get familiar with each other without actual...
