Ducks are one of the most versatile birds you can add to your farm. Our healthy, cold-hardy breeds thrive in a variety of climates, making them a low-maintenance option if you choose to raise them outdoors or in a pastured setting.

Certain duck breeds outperform chickens in both egg laying and meat production. We offer many dual-purpose breeds that can be reared for both meat and eggs.

Some of our best egg laying ducks include the Golden Layer and the Khaki Campbell duck. The Golden Layer has excellent egg production, laying up to 290 eggs per year. Duck eggs are about twice the size of a chicken egg, with a richer taste and higher protein content. 

With fast growth rates and ideal feed conversion rates, our meat ducks can be a profitable addition to your farm. Our best meat ducks include breeds like the White Pekin duck and the Rouen. Many specialty markets and fine dining establishments prefer the Rouen for its uniquely rich and flavorful meat.

Caring for Your New Ducks

It's important to note that male to female ratios with ducks are incredibly important, as having too many males can be stressful and dangerous for females. We strongly recommend a male to female ratio of 1:5 to protect the health and well-being of your flock. 

If this is your first time raising ducks, be sure to reference our blog on raising waterfowl, or check out the poultry care guide for more information. We cover the importance of niacin, protein needs, watering station setups, and transitioning your birds to the outdoors.
