Ducks

Many of our Ducks are good layers, so fresh free-range eggs are frequently on sale.

Muscovy Duck

Originally a wild duck from Central America where it nests in the trees of forest swamps, laying 8–21 eggs per clutch. A nice character with a sense of humor, very intelligent and head of escape committee!

Call Ducks

Call Ducks were originally developed to call down other ducks into great traps or shooting parties. They are the smallest breed of domestic duck, weighing around 600gms and, in general do not lay a large number of eggs. 'Great pets'.

Indian Runner Duck

These were originally called Penguin Ducks when introduced by Dutch Explorers 200 years ago. They have lost their power of flight but can run fast on their tall upright bodies.
