These ducks were developed in Scotland around 1900 from stock that came from the East Indies. These uniquely appearing ducks have long, slender bodies and a vertical posture thus leading to their nicknames of “Penguin Ducks” or “Bottle Necks.” Runners do not waddle like other ducks but move with a quick step. They are smaller ducks that are good foragers, lay white eggs, and are a very interesting addition to any farmstead.
*WARNING* If your ducks arrive with leg bands, the bands must be removed within 7 days! Leaving the bands on can harm your fowl!

Customer Product Reviews
We bought runners last year. The black male is so beautiful- almost iridescent. The fawn and white female is a good layer and a good mom. She is on her second nest now.
Our runner ducks are very friendly and docile. They are also very curious and fun to watch. We will definitely add more runner ducks to our home!
We just love our Runner ducks! They are so funny and very easy for my children to handle. They are very docile too. I will definitely order from here again :) Thank you for such healthy birds!!
The runner ducks I got from McMurray Hatchery are very healthy and lively. They are a great addition to my farmette. I will definitely order from here again!!!!
We love these runners! Happy go lucky personality. You cant get them away from the pond even at -15 degrees. They lay very well also.
Love my runner ducks!!! Extremely healthy. Easy to herd because they like to stay in a tight grouping. They love the cold, too. My runners are out in the snow and ice right, now. They prefer that to being in the barn.
