Khaki Campbell Ducks
The
Khaki Campbell duck is a medium sized brown duck breed that makes a wonderful farm duck. They are very hardy and avid foragers, but their most functional and popular utility trait is their prolific egg-laying capabilities. If you are looking for a duck that will produce plenty of
fresh duck eggs for human consumption, this is the bird for you.
Khaki Campbell females are quite popular, outselling males by a large margin. Please note that if you purchase
straight run birds, we will send you truly straight run birds. We will not first pick out all of the females for other orders. This courtesy makes us an extremely popular and cost effective resource to obtain these birds for egg production.
Khaki Campbell hens are capable of producing eggs most of the year, as long as the basic conditions of their environment are right. The egg production of the
Khaki Campbell can even exceed that of domestic chickens. On average, the birds is capable of laying 300 eggs per year, potentially yielding many
Khaki Campbell ducklings.
Khaki Campbell ducks are very active with their streamlined build. They have a sturdy and upright posture, as part of their breeding origin is from the
Indian Runner Duck. Other than a few
hybrid duck breeds like the
Golden 300 Hybrid and the
White Golden Layer, the
Khaki Campbell Duck is the best
pure bred egg laying duck that we sell.
Khaki Campbell ducklings were bred to be the ultimate egg layers by just 5-7 months old. This comes from their sturdy build combined with their
Indian Runner Duck lineage.
Khaki Campbell ducks are extremely adaptable to their environments, thriving in arid deserts, wet tropical rain forests, and freezing cold tundras. Here's a short clip of our
