Our birds are highly sought after and have been winners at many County Fairs and 4-H events
I know sometimes you don't want or need a full dozen of one kind, so I hope this will help other small farmers and schools to order with a little more freedom and save a few bucks while doing it.
This is one of the breeds of duck developed in North America their origin is lake Cayuga, in New York State. It is thought to have been breed from the large black ducks that have been coming to the lake since the 1850's. It is a hardy and quiet breed. These ducks are best known for their plumage, which is a brilliant greenish-black. They are quite amazing to see in the sunlight.
These ducks are great for eating and for egg laying, laying 100 or more eggs a year.
Early in the season, Cayuga eggs are usually black or dark gray, fading to light gray or blue over the laying season
