Redhead ducks natural range is marshy areas and prairies of Manitoba Canada southward to the southwestern United States and Mexico.

They desire dense natural cover or a nesting box on the ground to lay their eggs in. Many hens do not make their nests, instead, they lay their eggs in nests of other hens.  They are easy to take care of but a challenge to get them to breed in captivity. They are winter hardy.

 Male Redhead drakes have a coppery red head and upper neck, a black breast, and lower neck. Their eggs are creamy white to brownish buff. Drakes bills are blue with a black tip. Females are a plain brown color

Diet: Redhead Ducks dive to eat seeds, tubers, rhizomes, water lilies, and wild rice. In captivity, they can eat duck pellet, dried dog food, normal poultry feed, and greens.
