Blue Runner Ducks, known for their upright posture and distinctive blue coloration, are a unique and captivating breed.
Originating from Southeast Asia, these birds have become increasingly popular in the United States for their charming demeanor and practical benefits.
Egg Color and Production: Blue Runner Ducks are prolific egg layers and often outperform many other duck breeds in egg production. On average, a healthy and well-cared-for Blue Runner duck can lay approximately 100 to 180 large white eggs per year. This makes them an excellent choice for those seeking a consistent supply of fresh eggs.
Personality: One of the key reasons why pet duck enthusiasts are drawn to Blue Runner Ducks is their friendly and sociable nature. Their good-natured personality makes them excellent companions for humans and other flock members. Their inquisitive behavior adds a delightful touch to any backyard flock.
Expert Hatching Tip: Duck Eggs should be set 1 week after chicken eggs for the same hatch dates if combined in an incubator.
Please note: We have four farm locations that we ship from. There is a six-egg minimum from each farm that you choose to order from.

Shipping labels on our hatching egg boxes indicate that the post office should "CALL ON ARRIVAL." This reduces the handling and extremes of temperature the eggs experience en route to you and can ultimately increase the viability of your eggs. However, this information is often not seen by the carrier, and eggs are delivered to the physical shipping address on the label anyway.
If it is imperative that the eggs not be delivered directly to your shipping address, you can change the ship-to address on your order to the address of your post office of choice, attn: 'your name.' If you choose to do this, make sure to include a valid phone number so the post office can reach you when the box arrives.
