    I recently purchased 4 cayugas from TSC. They are approx 3 weeks old. I was so happy to see them at number 3 on your list 🎉😊. They are requiring a lot of planning and setup but I just adore them so far. I'm like a little ducky mama and am so scared to lose one. I cant wait to see them grow to "adulthood." Beautiful ducks at #1, would love a few of those
    Great video, thank you so much.

    I had no idea there were so many beautiful breeds of egg laying ducks. I am researching because I would love to have some ducks to raise. Thank you so much for sharing your insight!! ❤

      Our pleasure! There are indeed so many beautiful duck breeds that are also great for laying eggs. Glad you're thinking of raising some. If you need more advice, just let us know.

    The problem with the Rouen ducks that you showed us is that they are so heavy that they can crush the eggs in the nest. There is a lighter version of this breed with a more streamlined body, making it look more like a mallard and without the problem of crushing their eggs.
    There were a couple of things that you left out about the muscovy ducks. All the other breeds are derived from the mallard, but the muscovy is an entirely separate breed. Also, extra care must be taken when handling a muscovey because they have sharp claws on their feet that help them roost in their natural resting place, in the branches of trees.
    Another thing that should have been mentioned in this video since you talked about the quality of the meat of some breeds: the myth that duck meat is fatty and greasy.
    This is true of only a couple of breeds. Most ducks have lean meat. For the fatty ducks, properly cooking the meat will render the fat away. And the fat is highly prized among chefs for frying other foods.

    Im the case of muscovy, the drake is much bigger than the duck . The drake is at least as big as the biggest breeds that i have seen like the Peking and Rouen. However the duck is smaller than those 2

    How come your egg laying numbers are so much higher than the hatcheries claims ?

    We do have rowan ducks, like 3 of them right now, but the male duck is aggressive, and trying to do the dirty with his sibling, even when she was way smaller. And he attacked his siblings for what ever reason. Like the female duck is fine being around me, but the male duck doesn't want that, so he tries to keep her away from me, trying to block her way or lead her away from me. IDK why he does that. My father said that he's may be jealous of me.

      Sounds like it's time for that psycho drake to take a long nap mate.

    Can we touch Duck Egg at the time of laying

    • @Realred4lyf
      @Realred4lyf 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      They say you shouldn't touch them when the duck is seeing you. Once it sees that you've touched them, it'll not hatch them.

    • @rexresa9939

      You can handle them, just be careful, and the more you handle them, the less likely they are to hatch.

    But my duck not lay eggs

    • @Agronomag

      There might be a few reasons why your ducks aren't laying eggs. It might be due to their age, the season, diet, or even their stress levels. Yes, ducks can be stressed too! They often lay fewer eggs when they don't get enough light, so you should make sure they have enough daylight and a proper diet.
