Call duck colors

[Wolfieskyes]

What color do you think my call ducks will be

Blue and Lavender. I just hatched some ducklings which have both. This is them, the first is blue the second lavender. Yours look a lot like them. My female is the duck in my Avatar. She is silver. Their dad is a Khaki/Appleyard mix so he carries black and brown. So, the little Lavendar has to be female -sex-linked. If your drake was brown and your female carried only black then yours will be sex-linked as well.

Can someone help me identify the color this duckling. I am referring to the "grey and yellow" one, I know the other will be white. I believe it is a silver, but does anyone have an example of how she will look as an adult?

Will Call Duck drakes mate with other female ducks in a person's pen? I have 4 drakes in with my Khaki Campbell female, mallard females, muscovy female and Rouen females. Just wondering??? Thanks

Yup, and be darn smug about it, too!

Do you think they will be as hard on my Hens as my big ducks were? Hopefully I did not make a big mistake. Thanks for your reply too.

I wouldn’t think so since their legs are shorter for chasing and they weight less for pinning the girls, but Canadian Wind may have experience with Calls which I do not. Here is a picture of the lavender duckling above all grown up:

Thanks, My big drakes had terrible claws as my Mules were half Muscovy half Mallard. These little Calls don't hurt me a bit when I hold them. I am hoping my big drakes leave them alone once they are out of drake jail. I am thinking about rehoming the big Muscovy but I hate to as he is so nice except to the ladies, lol. Thanks for the beautiful picture. She surely is pretty.

I have no experience with Calls, but there was a recent post about one having fathered ducklings on a... Pekin, I think?
