    Would love to find more people from our province. While we meet some at the poultry shows, this would be a cool way to connect more and share with people that do not get of the farm much;0) :frow

    Duck genetics question..

    I have a Blue or Black Swedish drake (he kind of has black parts and blue parts on him) and a female Pekin. Wondering because of the genes if any ducklings once they breed would turn out to be a silver Swedish, or something completely different?

    Adding to my flock...

    I'm looking for opinions on adding to my flock. I have 4 9-week-old ducks, 2 pekin and 2 cayuga.
