Spring 2025 Hatch - This listing is for single Rosey Billed Pochard duckling (straight run) as they are too young to determine genders.

Pickup at our farm in Aspers, PA 17304.  We do not ship live birds at this time. 

Please Note: We typically DO NOT HOLD waterfowl, pheasants or pigeons and they are sold on a first come first serve basis, unless you order on the website and pay at the time of ordering (that ensures we will hold your selections). 

First come first serve ordering on the website - NO HOLDS unless you order and pay on the website (must pickup within 1 week of ordering on the website). 

Our Rosey Billed Pochards are not pinioned and can fly, so they will need a pen with adequate space and a some clumping grasses for cover and nesting areas.  Netting (minimum 2") should be placed over the aviary to contain them and prevent overhead predator losses.   They are ground nesters and prefer ground nest boxes or large clumping grasses to nest in.  We use large rocks, stumps and even potted herbs and veggies (kale, swiss chard, etc) and move them around to stimulate them and give them variety.   They should have access to water (a small pond with fresh moving water, a kiddie style pool or similar).  The water should be fresh and if using a kiddie pool, complete water changes should be done frequently.

We feed our Rosey Billed Pochard Ducks a mixture of Kalmbach Duck & Goose pellets, Mazuri Waterfowl Maintenance (or Mazuri Waterfowl Breeder during breeding season) and Wild Bird Seed mix.   They enjoy freeze dried meal worms as a treat.

Please note:  We do our best to vent-sex the ducks, however we can't guarantee 100% accuracy with this method.  You may choose to vent-sex yourself at the time of pickup.  Once the birds leave our farm, we make no warranties or guarantees on sexing.
