The males are larger and do not quack. they make a whisper that is similar to a quack, but nothing like the females . My females are only vocal when I call them to feed. the male makes the little grunting noises that are barely audible. The male usually leads the parade.
Indian Runners are an unusual breed of domestic duck. They stand erect like penguins and, rather than waddling, they run.
a duck that doesn't like to run but it can run but it can't for a chicken
Alice paid the Indian runner to take a message to her father, indicating she valued his service despite the fact that no one else liked him. This suggests that Alice had a unique perspective or relationship with the Indian runner that set her apart from others. Therefore, the statement "Alice liked the Indian runner" is true. The assertion that "Alice did not like the Indian runner" is false.
Yes she did
In English there are no masculine or feminine forms. English uses gender specific nouns for male or female.The noun for a male duck is drake; the noun for a female duck is hen or duck.
Not sure, but she looks a lot like the so called "Indian Runner Ducks", previously known as the "Penguin Duck". http://www.yp-connect.net/~poultry/id101.htm
The tallest breed of duck is the Indian Runner Duck, so named because it stands upright and moves from place to place by running rather than waddling. The height of the taller males can reach 76cm (30 inches).
To be more clear with this answer, female reptiles and birds can lay eggs regardless of having them fertilized or not. The female duck will lay an egg regardless of the rooster's actions. Furthermore, a rooster and duck are not compatible in breeding, so don't expect a chicken/duck hybrid or something like that.
They rubb their heads on other male or female ducks (depending on bi or straight)
In "The Last of the Mohicans," Alice Munro does not explicitly express her feelings about the Indian Runner, but her character is depicted as more inclined towards the romantic ideals of the time. Her interactions with the characters suggest a preference for traditional European ideals and values rather than the rugged individuality associated with the Indian Runner. Ultimately, Alice's character is more focused on her personal relationships and the tumultuous events around her than on any specific admiration for the Indian Runner.
if you mean setting then no, the don't sett(siting on there eggs to hatch them) on eggs very often, and if they do they might abandon the nest at anytime from a few days till days before hatching, apparently they are not good mothers, i have had them set but not raise them,( the eggs got eaten before hatch), if you want them for eggs then there good(200 eggs a year), just make sure you have a coop for them or keep them indoors till the lay there egg(usually in the morning), and they will lay eggs wherever they are when they have to, so if there free ranging you will have to go on an egg hunt, but if you have a pond then you might find alot of the eggs in the pond, at least that's what i fin with mine,
Yes, ducks like company, just watch them for a few minutes after introduction to make sure they get along ok.
