    I have two runners and I ADORE them. I also have 3 appleyards, and the juxtaposition of the skinny, running Runners with the chonky, aggressively waddling appleyards is HILARIOUS. 😂❤

    Im planning to buy a little house on the swedish countryside with a garden for growing veggies. Ever since I first saw the duck videos (especially of Runner ducks) I just can't get the idea out of my head to get some =,) Runner ducks would be such perfect little companions and helpers in the garden, and they are SO cute!

    Runners are more high energy than other breeds of ducks, which makes them a bit more high strung, but excellent foragers. They're always up to (or in to) something. Generally if they're comfortable with you they can be very personable, and fantastic gardening buddies.

    I can definitely attest to them being more timid and skittish. Especially when they are in a group, I’ve got 15 of them which have settled into two waddlings. You’ve got not chance of cuddles if they are all together. One of my ducks Dinky, who hatched with his yolk sac still attached and had a troublesome birth, oh my, he CRIES if he can’t find the rest of his waddling. Really sad cries. Bless him! They really do feel safety in numbers!

    I have two male blue runners and five black females. Runners are generally pretty healthy ducks. From my experience, their primary cause of death is stupidity. They tend to get stuck in places more frequently then other breeds and can more easily be picked off by foxes and hawks. They act more robotic and have less personality than other ducks. The one blue runner likes to be on top of high places like a wood pile or planter. Sometimes females lay long skinny eggs. Black females lay green eggs usually. Watching them run at full speed is quite funny. Only one will come to me for tomatoes but she's very vocal about it. In time, black runners slowly turn white.

    So I got my “four Indian runners” at tractor supply and as they got older they weren’t ever tall if anything they were short so I looked up ducks who looked similar to them and turns out my female duck Pringle is a welsh harlequin and my two ducks puddles and Nebe were German blues and my alll black duck raisin is a Cayuga duck *SO DONT ALWAYS TRUST TRACTOR SUPLY*

    Hi, regarding runner ducks.. great breed.. all around hardy and productive.. exceptional foragers... they can cover a lot of ground in a short period of time. excellent at slugging and great layers.. I'm considering adding a pair to my large breed flock of cayugas and pekins...
    quick question regarding ground based predator controls... what are your thoughts on a goose as a guard animal... as opposed to a dog or the like...
    cheers

    We very specifically are looking at runner ducks due to them being less likely to fly, for the superior pest control, and for the eggs. We (myself, my queerplatonic partner, and I) are hoping to have a small hold in Minnesota in the future.

      It’s definitely possible that’s she’s just old. She could also be hiding the eggs somewhere if you have them free ranging.
