Snowy Mallard

• These birds now belong to me, since my oldest son has lost interest. I plan to continue to work with them.  There aren’t may breeders that have them. I’ve had to outcross them to gray mallards this past year.  I can’t find any decent new blood to put into my line.  

• I recommend these birds to people that like the looks of the snowy call, but don’t want the complications that can come with calls. These birds are a lot hardier and have great hatchability.

• They make great broodies. I had several unexpected mallard gifts this past year. I let them have the run of my barn, since they can be feather pickers.
