Green winged teal
King eider Marine ducks are underrated
>>4397714Forgot picPlease forgive
why are they so beautiful and why does my country only get the green-headed ones? it's not fair
>>4399594Jokes aside I enjoy the humble Mexican duck. It reminds me of my 2nd favourite bird the common House Sparrow
>>4397858waht country do you live in?
>>4397706Anyone here keep ducks?I heard drakes can be massive assholes for no reason and will fight anyone including you, fight roosters, and kill ducks and hensI always wanted to keep ducks but I might settle for another chicken coop if they can't live in peace
>>4399531These ducks remind me of professional cyclists with those aero helmets.>>4397709This duck looks like an asshole. >>4397715Spaceship duck.>>4398037Sad duck.>>4399599Quack.
Saxony ducks are my favorite. Both genders are beautiful.
>>4400742Appleyard
>>4400742*all genders are beautiful
>>4400884What about the ugly-genders? Their gender is entirely based around being ugly. Pronouns Ug, ugly, uggo
>>4400934
>>4400543>>4400965>keep ducks?yes>drakes can be massive assholesthey fight sometimes, the females fight sometimes. they are fighting mainly when some different ducks are introduced.>fight anyone including youhow is a duck gonna fight you they have round beaks? id think a chicken could do more damage>drakes rape ducksyes sometimes it seems like the female doesnt want but she can fight him off or just submit.>kill ducks and hensidk about mixing drakes with chickens. the thing is the drakes have an actual dick that they stick in, whereas chickens are designed for some weird lesbian sex with a rooster. idkducks are pretty cool, mine are nervous of me because i never handle them. they are easy to control because they are magnetized together rather than scatter like chickens.
>>4400543>>4400989>duck gonna fight you they have round beaksare you thinking of geese? they are much more agressive. they will bite you and try to defend their flock.but still they have round beaks and can only nip it doesnt hurt.grab their neck(loosley) and they cant do shit
>>4401005looselyyeh thats better
oh kurwa how to post a video of ducks?i have ffmeg.
>>4397706Indian runners
>>4400807Those are very nice.
Saxonies are my first favorite with the Welsh harlequin and Swedish blue ducks being second and third.
>>4401761
I really like these, too. They're supposed to lay greenish-blue eggs sometimes.
These lay black/dark-colored eggs.
>>4401772>These lay black/dark-colored eggs.eggers, for short
>>4397706Been following the mallards at my local creek, couple years ago a couple ducks popped up with weird patterns. Anyone know if they're mallards or some other species?
I want to get Pekings, but apparently they're horrible mothers and won't broodCan I get a few Muscovies to be sitters? Apparently they're very broody.So a few Muscovy ducks thay will live a while (no drakes), with Peking drakes and ducks for breeding, eggs, and meat.
>>4407060That duck looks like a jerk.
>>4399531i love mandarin duck
>>4407060Has anyone even seen these in real life? They supposedly live where I live but I have never seen a merganser once in my life.
>>4400543I’ve owned like every breed of domestic duck and also some exotic ones like mandarins and wood ducks. Never had an issue with aggression. In domestic ducks drakes will only pick on other birds because they’re trying to rape them. They’re certainly a lot more docile to each other than chickens.
>>4400543They have random personalities and males will fight like roosters will.We have a male that was raised with chickens and he fucking despises our chickens and will chase them. Another male call duck is tiny as hell but will try and nip at your ankles. The rest are pretty chill.Depending on the drake you will need 2-4 hens for him. Otherwise they will literally breed the poor females to death. Although sometimes you can get away with one to one ratios. Call ducks especially pair off well, but don't like swimming like other ducks and prefer just to splash in shallow puddles and dishes. Our one bossy female call duck is pretty funny since she will quack very loudly if her flock gets more than a few feet from her. They will then circle back to her. Also if they aren't making a nest ducks will lay eggs wherever they fucking want. So keep that in mind.
>>4403365Ours did pretty well nesting, but we never let them hatch since we had enough birds at the time. Only thing to keep in mind is to make sure their area is fairly good size. When the ground is wet and muddy ducks will bury their beaks in them and look for bugs. Problem is that this will add up and soon their pen will be full of small holes everywhere. Because they are some of the largest ducks if they step in one of those holes they can hurt their legs. Ducks have very fragile legs and larger ones especially. We have an old drake that hurt his leg and doesn't move much. Honestly surprising he has made it this long.
>>4399588what a handsom boy
>>4401162they look so funny
>>4401772pretty colours!>>4401786jej'd
>>4410644omg thats baeutiful!
Saw a flock of these bad boys the other day. They stare into your sould
whenever I go for a cheeky 3am burger, I always see Muscovy ducks in the drive thru. There's a pond on the same road, but it's at least a mile away. They must be getting fed real good at this Cook-out

>>4419603
>>4400543I've had drakes that were dicks and drakes that were whimpy cowards. It depends on the duck. My current one likes to follow the chickens around, once they get big enough there isn't much infighting between chickens and roosters although you definitely do not want to brood them together.
>>4411065I saw my duck (drake) jump the fence and angrily approach a wild mallard drake.then he was polite and digging in the grass with the mallard
>>4412498Duck 5 is dead
Long-tailed Duck
>>4421221Is that heaven?
idk not a fan of those they look like DLC
Okay boys, I need your help with this one. These ducks just showed up on my property. I walked past them with my dog on the opposite side of the ditch creek, maybe 20 feet away and they didn't flinch.Is this a lost flock of domesticated duckies? I might kidnap them if they are. They are quite beautiful, and I quite enjoy duck eggs.
>>4426780False alarm... They are my neighbors. We are going to start charging rent. 10 duck eggs per month.
>>4426797Sounds like a win win
>>4410661I saw a whole bunch today on the Hudson River.
>>4397706>used to like going to the park to feed ducks as a form of meditation>come back from vacation one day>all the ducks are goneRIP to all my feathered frens.
>>4426817A lot of those ducks starve during the winter because people stop feeding them
>>4427783
>>4427797Dabbuck on the right.
>>4401930All mallards look exactly the same, that's obviously another kind of duck.
>>4397706cute duck
>>44124985 and 9

These two duckies showed up after really heavy rain created some nice ponds in my fields. They spend all day in them and it's really fun watching them.One day I saw them fly down and they did the skid landing in the water. Absolutely amazing.
>>44124982rolling for tomorrow
>>4397706Back in 2008, I was out for a walk along the local canal near where it passes through a nice country park, and I was waiting for the people I was with to catch up as they'd gone back a bit for some reason, so I was alone next to the canal. I was looking at the ducks swimmng past when an old fella came along and greeted me and he said ""see that duck there? that's a very rare duck, it's called a mandarin duck". I hadn't really clocked it but among the normal mallards was a duck covered in all these nice colours. And that's the story of how I learned about these ducks. I've since seen a family of them while kayaking along the river Dee in Wales. Good taste in ducks, anon.
>>4445374nice story and a bump
>>4443679these are good looking ducks
>>4410661i see them in richmond, va
>>4446314:D I enjoy watching them.
The Mallard demands an esoteric respect for the length of their reproductive organs and why they have them. A kind of respect esteemed only by those such as the vikings, and...others(I was too afraid to google "legendary grapists").
I love Loons bros. Waking up at 5AM to sunrise on the lake, still waters and a family of loons swims by the dock? Beautiful.

>>4448130So are these ducks or geese?They're called "Egyptian Ducks" in my language but they're described as geese too
>>4397715Amish duck
>>4449266They're a weird in between but lean closer to duck, structurally.
>>4397706Breeding Male Ruddy
>>4438828>>4436342awesome duck
I was kayaking along a narrow river and ended up approaching a swimming mother duck with several babbys from behind (not the mandarins from my last post). Although I had no intention of disturbing them, I was obviously seen as a threat and it was interesting to see the mother duck send the babbys to swim into a channel formed beneath the long grass that was hanging over into the river, meanwhile, the mother duck moved out into the middle of the river directly ahead of me and started to thrash the water around and bring as much attention to itself as it could while swimming away. Those babbys were in good hands (or wings). Hope they all managed to find each other afterwards.
>>4397706Ducks are fucking great man. They deserve only the best.
>>4460686nice pic, but thats a goose not a duck>can they survive something that's 6in long and 3in girth?no
>>4460697:( I thought they evolved big vags for the drake's big rape dick.
>>4407060>I've been doing a lot of thinking lately
>>4427783bucephala ass mf
>>4460686 No, it's impossible. Ducks have small dicks, so they can't survive something that's 6in long and 3in girth. That's why the only aquatic bird zoophiles have sex with trumpeter swans, because they are large enough they won't get injured.
>>4397706
>>4410661I’ve seen them in florida, idk wtf they do down here.
do we know what duck he is???

Ducks are mid.
>>4453625Good taste in (shel)ducks, friend
>>4400742>>4400807came here to say that these are my fave duck breeds. can't decide which to raise
>>4399531the pond near my place in NC has a bunch of mallards like normal, but there's a single mandarin from who knows were that lives with them. it makes high pitched squeaks instead of normal quacking. i call him weirdo.
Pekin duck I used to have, he had feathered legs
>>4397706Mandarin ducks are beautiful. An ex of mine kept a few and the female would hop on my shoulder whenever I entered the aviary.
>>4445374There are a fair few of them in East Sussex. Saw a few around the rivers/ponds, there. The males are stunning. It's cool that they make their beaks bright red to impress the female
this is for secret duck appreciators

I choose to believe that they're out there somewhere still

How much does breed matter for the taste of the eggs?Any recipes you think are much better with duck eggs?
>>4400543Drakes are assholes, yes. They're loud, they like to command the ducks around, they're rapists and they brawl with each other over who gets to rape who. But they're not very dangerous. They might drown a duckling, but they can't exactly massacre anyone with those beaks. Even if a predator invades the coop, there's little a drake can do.Anyway, you'll have the least problems if you either just get one drake or if you get several but from the same nest. But there should be at least one, otherwise you get rowdy lesbian ducks.

>>4401162Best ducks
>>4526960I've had eggs from Indian runners and another, fatter breed (might've been a Rouen, I'm not sure) and couldn't really tell a difference in taste, only in size.
Was walking dog and noticed this stealth duck. It was pretty funny.
>>4533674QED Gang rape is natural and moral.
