Flying Mallard Duck
The Mallard small, flying duck. They are very similar in coloring to the Rouen duck, but are much smaller (weighing just 2-2.5 pounds). Mallards will start to fly for short spurts at 10-12 weeks, and will be flying well by 16 weeks. It is really a treat to see these brightly colored ducks flying about.
When raised for meat production, Mallards have a more gamey taste than other domestic duck breeds. Mallard hens are excellent mothers and will raise one or two broods of ducklings a year.
See our FAQ for more information on states with restrictions on Mallards. We recommend checking with your state wildlife or regulatory agency before placing your order. A permit is not needed to purchase, raise, own, or sell properly marked, captive-reared Mallard ducklings. All domestically hatched Mallard ducklings are required to be marked for identification by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Services (See 50 CFR 21.13).
