Runner Duck Assortment
Our Runner Duck Assortment includes our choice of at least two different varieties from our varieties include the Fawn and White, Chocolate, Blue and Black Runner Ducks. Indian Runner Ducks are a delight to watch with their unusual upright appearance. Add a few to your flock with this assortment. Runner Ducks are tall, slender, vertical stance, have a slightly nervous temperament and tend to run clustered together as a group.
Runner Ducks are relatively small waterfowl (averaging just 3-4 pounds), good foragers and are a very interesting addition to any farm or homestead. Runner Ducks are good layers, averaging about 100-180 eggs per year. Runner Duck eggs are good sized, averaging 65-80 gram. Runner Ducks have good fertility rates but make poor/fair mothers to their ducklings.
Indian Runner Ducks were actually developed in Southeast Asia, not India, and bred for egg production and mobility. These uniquely appearing ducks — sometimes referred to as 'Penguin Ducks' or 'Bottle Neck Ducks' — have long, slender bodies and a vertical posture. Runners do not waddle like other ducks but move upright with a quick step.
Straight run (unsexed) only.
Runner Ducks are also sold individually — available in four color varieties as sexed ducklings.
