Layer Ducklings for sale hatching February to November. Lay 220-245 duck eggs per year. Our breeder sells 10,000 - 20,000 duck eggs per week, it is important that the duck strain produces duck eggs efficiently and consistently. Golden 300 Hybrid egg layer duckas they lay more and larger eggs than the Khaki Campbell duck and have a calmer temperament with a higher fertility. The Khaki Campbell may be a good egg producer in small flocks but we were never satisfied with their production in our larger commercial flocks. Because of this, our duck breeder developed the Golden 300 Hybrid by crossing and utilizing the attributes of different duck breeds. The Golden 300 Hybrid can be sexed at any age by its color as the males are shades of black and the females are shades of brown. They do not retain this characteristic in future generations. As many customers want larger quantities of these ducks for egg production, we have special pricing for them. If you want 60-119 females, you pay the prices in the price list for the females and their sexing ($1.35) but there is no charge for up to an equal number of males. If you order 120 females, there is no sexing charge and no charge for up to an equal number of males. This does not calculate correctly on the website so please call 920-472-4068 to place your larger orders.
