Ancona Ducks, Ducklings & Eggs For Sale!

I have reorganized our flock, and sold the ducks we won't be using. We will be raising purebred Anconas. Most of this flock is brand new, and are still getting used to their new home. So, we won't be starting any hatching, or egg sales until Spring of 2012.

The Drakes - Steve, Black (Crested-Holderread) and Jigsaw, Black & Chocolate Tri (Flom). Ellie Mae - Chocolate  - Hen (Flom) Aphrodite - Black & Choc Tri - Hen (Holderread) Ashleigh - Blue -  Hen (Holderread) The Hens - 4 Chocolate, 2 Blue, 1 Blue & Black Tri and 1 Black & Chocolate Tri
Lanie - Chocolate - Hen (Flom) Drina - Blue & Black Tri - Hen (Flom) Blueberry - Blue - Hen (Flom) Belle - Chocolate - Hen (Flom) Dahlia - Chocolate - Hen (Flom)

 Three of these ducks have Holderread bloodlines. The other 7 came from Flom's. One of the Holderread ducks is crested (the drake). There is also a Non-crested drake in the Flom line. None of the Flom ducks have ever produced a crested duckling.

They are bred for:

Multi-colored eggs (white, cream, green or blue), Medium weight and body type, and highly marked individuals.

Possible colors out of this line include white with:

Black, Chocolate, Blue, Lavender, Silver and Tri-color in any combination of 2 of these colors on white.

The hens will lay 210-280 eggs a year, and lay almost year round. When we are not hatching, eggs will be available for purchase.

At 8-12 wks, they are big enough to make an excellent table bird. However, if you are planning to eat them, please don't tell us, we don't want to know. They are calm, and can be friendly, if raised properly. They do fine in colder climates with adequate shelter available to them. With their awesome coloring and humorous personalities, they are the ultimate pet, backyard & farm duck!

This breed is critically endangered by the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy. This is their page of information on this breed: http://www.albc-usa.org/cpl/waterfowl/ancona.html  

Guarantees

Ducklings: We do not guarantee the survival of ducklings. We also will not guarantee sex until after they are 16 weeks old.

Eggs: We do not guarantee hatches. Nature dictates who hatches, and who does not. Optimal incubator conditions help a lot.

Crests: The Holderread ducks may produce some crested ducklings, but it is a low ratio. I cannot guarantee you will get cresteds, out of hatching eggs from these ducks.

Shipping

We do not ship live ducks, or ducklings. We will ship eggs. We will do our best to package eggs securely to prevent postal abuse, but we cannot guarantee their condition up on arrival.
