Must all go together. Will upload more photos when I can get them.
2 welsh harlequin females - one gold-phase and one silver-phase. Both laying.
5 welsh harlequin drakes - 2 almost fully mature, 3, still young
3 silver runner duck females - all laying GREEN eggs. 5 months old.
2 silver/lavender runner duck drakes - both lavender, but one is a big jerk and I've been fattening him up for freezercamp.
2 female geese - one American Buff, one Embden from a meat-bird hatchery but exceptionally healthy at about 3 years old now. The American Buff is very precious to me and I love her dearly. But I can't keep just her without the rest of her flock. She accepts being pet, and she's gentle and curious in nature. The Embden is a great nesting goose - protective, but I can still pet and work with her without her biting me.
The 3 younger welsh harlequin drakes are sweet but run separate from the rest of the flock. I was keeping them to pick a breeding drake when they fully matured.
The rest of the flock sticks together. The Embden goose just got off a nest I let her sit on, so she's going through a molt. She sits on the eggs that both geese lay. The geese are great flock guardians from hawks - I've never lost a duck to any predators.
I really love my birds - they're great for my backyard flock. But I have been falling behind in my academics for too long now and I haven't been keeping up with cleaning enough.
I'm not offended if you split them up after me, or eat the non-show-quality drakes when they're bigger. I just ask that you don't house the 3 younger drakes with the rest - the older ones *will* beat the babies up. Especially the silver runner drakes and silver welsh harlequin duck.
I had the welsh harlequins and silver runners to start a breeding project for snowy runners. If you take them on, I think you'd be the only one in Florida to have/sell that color.
They come with meat bird feed and Nature Wise Harvest Blend. I just bought a bag of both recently. And a container of niacin for supplementing the feed.
Please text (with your name) or mail relay. I will not answer cold calls.
Price has dropped and is non-negotiable. They are well-bred and difficult-to-aquire breeds. These are 5 laying ducks, 2 laying geese that are already established with the ducks, and a very uncommon color phase of runner ducks. The drakes are basically free.
I also have all of the supplies and almost all the wood already cut for a roughly 8x4 predator-proof enclosure meant for the geese. I didnt cut the wood for the door yet because it's better to wait until the rest is together and measure exactly. I'd planned on getting a gander and having the enclosure for the breeding goose and gander to raise goslings, since they get territorial during nesting/breeding season. I'd include it for $150 and I will bundle it appropriately and provide building instructions and photos from our first one. Includes black vinyl-coated hardware cloth. Took me and my husband about 4 hours to build a similar one from scratch. Designed so that one wall can be removed for easy cleaning, and an automatic door can also be built into the main door.
Priced to sell quickly and just get everything out. If I finish building it myself, I'm charging $500 for it.
