Looking to add Indian Runner ducklings to your back garden flock? Our runner ducklings are due to hatch 30th March 2026, and will need to be on heat for 3 weeks - so you can order these off heat runner ducklings instead if you don't want to do the baby stage. Available to reserve online, and then you can come and pick your exact duckling when you get here.. We can manually sex your ducklings with a 9/10 success rate - so whilst we can't 100% guarantee females, we can be as sure as humanly possible that you are getting girls. 

These active, upright ducks are a favourite among smallholders and poultry keepers for their unique look, excellent foraging habits, and high egg production. Perfect for families, smallholdings, or anyone wanting fun, productive garden ducks.
