Welsh Harlequin Ducks

Welsh Harlequin Ducks The Welsh Harlequin duck originated in 1949, developed by Leslie Bonnet, a duck breeder in Wales. Imported to the USA between 1968 and 1980, this unique breed is now popular throughout the country. As a descendant of the Khaki Campbell, the Welsh Harlequin is an excellent egg producer, capable of laying 240-300 eggs per year, making it a fantastic choice for backyard flocks. This breed is also known for its foraging skills and is frequently showcased in poultry shows across the USA. For those experienced in sexing ducklings, Welsh Harlequins can be sexed at hatch by subtle differences in bill color, with around 85% accuracy. Generally, males have darker bills, while females have lighter bills with a dark tip, though this distinction fades after a few days. For guaranteed accuracy, vent sexing is recommended. At Chicken Coop Company, we offer the Silver Welsh Harlequin variety of this exceptional duck for sale. Appearance: Feather Color: The Welsh Harlequin Du
