Hello All
A good friend of mine died suddenly this week :0( and I have the task of rehoming his much loved Runner Ducks plus one Mallard, they are all last years young apart from the Mallard (dont know anything about him), at present I do not know how many males/females (if anyone can tell me how to sex them that would be a great help) but from what I have been told most are females.
There are 9 in total plus one Mallard drake, they have been kept in two pens and if possible I would like them to go in there groups (4 and 5) but will concider spliting.
Pictures will be taken this morning and collection is from Nr Glemsford Suffolk CO10
Can be collected any time.
Please get in touch if you can offer them a home.
Many thanks
Maria

I would love some of these! I've just dug a pond and got a duckhouse. I am in essex so picking up is no problem. I would like 4 and am off work until next wednesday (fencing) so can come any time.
I've just registered so don't really know how this works and if I post a phone number here..

Hi,
I took some of the ducks and tried to sex them. I think I left 1 female and two male runners in one pen and the mallard is a male. I was sexing the runners on the basis that the males have a curly feather on their tales and only two had that.
