Will my call ducks get any bigger?

[BlueO]

Hello everyone! So this is my first time owning call ducks. I ordered some eggs and three hatched I now have three young call ducks and I’m not sure if they’re gonna get any bigger. I was just wondering what you guys think.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

This is Pancake she has already started honking.

This is waffle. Toast was being bad. There both boys.

Call ducks are a very small breed, about 1 - 2 lbs. They look fine to me. Due to their small size, they can also fly extremely well, so I hope you have a plan for that!

Yes I have. Do you know if they will get bigger or are they fully grown?

 

[KathiQuacks]

They look fully feathered, so I imagine they’re fully grown, too.

Yay! I was hoping they’d stay that small! Also do you know if my bigger ducks will be able to live with them?

Mine all live together. I’m down to just 1 call, but had 5.

Oh, I’m sorry you lost your calls. I have three runners, a black Swedish and a golden 300 with three calls. Do you think that will do all right?

They should. I have 19 full size ducks in with my one and she does fine.

Oh good! I wish I could have 20 ducks! I’m glad they do well together. I was pretty worried about that.

I kinda have more than 20…. I have 20 full size and 18 ducklings. The ducklings just don’t live with the ducks yet. We have 5 acres and an old barn. The ducks have a 10’x20’ indoor pen and then a water porch and free range. I can winter over up to 40 easily. But I’m not positive how many I’ll keep. Time will tell.
I love my calls… but mom doesn’t so I’m not getting any more. They are SO cute! They are too loud for mom though.
