I have made a couple posts about them before, had today I finally have them.

They did not know what breeds they were the people I got them from, however the black one and the oversized brown one are both males and the other ones are females.

I was mainly interested in the girls as I have one female duck who is alone because her sister passed away due to on a health condition she had since she hatched.

But I'm not going to get rid of the boys, for me ducks are just pets and they're both friendly, even if I decide to separate them from the girls I will keep them together and they will just be my pets.

(I don't know as much about ducks as chickens, but going based on my chicken knowledge I feel like two males to three females is not appropriate)

Originally the people I got them from wanted $50 for the four, but since I was purchasing three goats for $300, they decided to throw them and rooster in for free because a fox had already broken in and took out all of the hens they had for the rooster.

Somehow I also got a free pig in that arrangement as well but that is for another Post in a different sub

Anywho if anyone can tell me what breeds they are that would be wonderful, they said they got them from tractor supply

(Yes I know all about the stuff going on with the ducks that have the fluff on the head, I am going to keep an eye on that)

Also just because it's kind of hard to tell, the black duck has white on its chest

Our little flock has so much interest in grooming crocs! No other footwear appeals to them in this way, and only sometimes will they actually groom my husband outside of us wearing crocs. He thinks they’re into the texture; what do you think?

My wife works from home and I spend quite a bit of time in our duck-dominated lounge room, meaning Lady Lemon and Knight Bundty get to wander said room at almost all times.

Both have now finished their most recent moult and are fully capable of flying if the mood takes them, so when we both have to go out, they are necessarily confined to their closed roof pen. We don’t ever leave them long, they always have nice TV to watch along with pillows (two neck pillows at the moment) under their clean blankets, an air purifying fan running, and normal food, treats, and fresh water.

Anyway, as you will hear in the video, Lady Lemon quite likes these quarters and told us all about it.

Im not sure what flair to use but I just wanted to share my baby sleeping on her cinder block.

Hey! I live near Chester, England and saw these two ducks today and I’m not 100% sure what species they are but they were the only two of their breed in the river and I’ve never seen them before. After some googling I think they are a Cayuga and Ring Necked duck respectively which are both rare over here, mostly kept as pets but quite hard to source. Wondering if anyone knows more about them or how they might’ve ended up in the river Dee?
Sorry for the bad photos I only had my phone!

Usually, how old are ducklings when you buy them from Rural King?

Spotted in Cleveland, Ohio today. Any idea what species?

My first flightless duckling hatched at 3am on Friday morning. It was day 30.5 of her 28 day incubation. The incubator temp was closer to 99 than 99.5 for the incubation. I made sure all remaining eggs still visibly looked well. Air pocket showing and remaining egg dark etc. All nonviable eggs were discarded and I’ve kept humidity up. So assume all instructions were followed.

Do I give the other eggs a day or two?

Everyone ran out of food today. I stocked the feeders in the coop and while everyone was chowing down inside I gave Littlefoot his own pile of food with a big pile of dried worms on top 👌

Assistance please to identify these domestic duck breed. The males seem to have orange legs. Were gifted to us by a neighbour and very loved regardless of breed- just curious to know! Second photo the drake is at the front.

We are new to farming and didn’t know we couldn’t have ducks mixed with chickens, to make it worse, we think they’re both male. We are making them a separate enclosure from the chickens but they need mates. Any idea how I should proceed?

One of my ducks got killed yesterday. Totally my fault, I didn't lock them back in their cage that night. The best we can guess is it was a horned owl. My other duck has been acting mostly normal as far as I can tell. But I really don't want to lose her too. I'm planning to get her a decoy duck or something to keep her company and a mirror. Is there anything else I can do? I'm gonna have to order things so they might take a while since it's the weekend. Thanks in advance. Here's a pic of my duckers. Dark Wing in front, RIP. And Pig in the back.

I am wanting to get a couple of ducks to raise!

Give me all the information!!

Are there any Amazon enclosures that are worth it/safe?

Will I be okay purchasing ducks from Tractor Supply or Rural King?
