Snyder Ducks(feather legged ducks)
Decided this year would be the year I finally make my new breed of duck available to the public. Due to the already heavy requests from facebook, I won't be selling any more Snyder ducklings this year. If interested in being put on the waiting list for young adult(fully feathered/pretty much full grown) Snyder ducks this fall, however, email or PM me and I'll get back to you. Prices for young adults will be between $40 and $60 a pair depending on age and quality. I've also put up a website for them with lots of info on the Snyder duck breed, including their development and a proposed breed standard.

It should be noted that the adult ducks in these pics have some what heavier feathered legs than what they show in these pics. This time of year, mud has taken its tole on their leg feathers. That said, if you're expecting "Cochin chicken type" leg feathering you're going to be dissappointed. These are feathered legged, but the trait is caused by a different gene mutation than that in chickens. The amount and length of the leg feathering is slowly increasing every year and with only 13 years of development into them there is deffinately more potential.
If interested I'm on facebook with pics and info about Snyder ducks aswell as my other breeds/projects.

More improvement on the leg feathering of the Snyder Ducks. This little Snowy just hatched last night. Already looking forward to using him/her for breeding next year.

I enjoy Crested ducks and a crested version could be made easily enough if someone wanted some... but for now I'm just focusing on the "standard" I have written for them.
