In 2023, we purchased 6 Khaki Campbell ducklings. They were the cutest and messiest birds we've raised from chicks so far, but we loved to watch them waddle and splash in their water. As full grown ducks, they truly add so much fun to our farm. They are quite the explorers, searching out every water puddle after a rain, and add to the overall ambience of the farm with their constant quacking chatter. While we love them as family pets, they are here to work like everything on our farm, laying on average 3 eggs a day all through winter when our chickens had molted and stopped laying.
Our waddling of ducks has 1 drake and 5 hens, one of which turned out to be a Runner Duck!
