Im not possitive, but based on voice, I think they're both drakes. No curly tail feathers yet. They were hatched by one of my broody ducks from Metzer farms fertile eggs, but we don't have room to keep them. We hand reared them, they'll eat out of your hand and they're very pretty. They're...

Its been a long time since I've posted here. Since we have new babies I thought I'd share our story. We got 3 runner girls about 6 years ago and hand raised them from day old ducklings. One of them hatched fertile eggs we snuck under her when she got broody, about 3 years ago at age 3. So after...

Hi all, thanks for reading! Let me give you all the info. My black runner is 9 weeks old. She is fed Mazuri waterfowl starter mixed with maintenance and regular treats. We did niacin suplimints but stopped when we started the mazuri waterfowl feed. The duck run is floored with shavings, as is...

Hi I'm in the east bay and have 3 chocolate runners in need of a good home. I have vent sexed them and think they are 1 male and 2 females, but I'm new to sexing and can't guarantee the sexes.

Hi all, I haven't written into the forum in a while but was hoping for some help today. I have three female runners in a small urban back yard. One of them, Edie has been laying thin shelled eggs for the past 5 days. The shells are thin and powdery. Two that were so thin they broke either when...

and next to store-bought chicken eggs: The egg is perfectly formed and seems to have a pretty heavy bloom, the light in the first picture makes it look whiter than it really is. The question is: who's egg was it? Was it from Blue-shine, a rescue runner, supposedly around 1 year old...

Any advice would be much appreciated. These are our first ducks and they are 6 week old runners we got as day old chicks. Spark has been acting lethargic, barely moving and not keeping up with the others. She does seem to eat and drink a little, though the last time i tried to get her to eat...

My duckling will be 3 weeks old tomorrow, and I figured after much lurking, I should actually join BYC! I have three runner girls from Metzer farms. They are doing great, starting to feather, and spending their days outside since the weather has been warm. Here is a picture of them exploring my...
