Description

The Blue Swedish Duck is among the oldest domesticated ducks and is still a favorite today. Their hardiness adapts to cold climates and an interesting blueish-gray appearance, the Blue Swedish Duck is easy to raise, care for and keep. The Blue Swedish Duck’s unique plumage allows it to blend in and makes it difficult for predators to target. This breed is also good-natured and calm, making them great family pets and especially popular among young children.

  1. Lauren M

    Great

    Quick shipping, my small order of ducklings arrived alive and well. They have been vigorous and healthy. Easy and clear ordering process.

  2. Cackle Hatchery Team

    Please send pictures!!!

    So sorry please send us pictures and we will make this right with you. As far as requiring you to order 3 that is to ensure the safety of live poultry shipping through the mail. 1 or 2 ducks would not provide enough warmth to survive.

  3. pen

    not blue

    I specifically ordered BLUE Swedish ducks because they are pretty. I only wanted 1 female. they made me order 3. I now have 3 WHITE ducks. I contacted them but I could never get anywhere with them about it. poor quality control. Very Disappointed.

  4. Theclassicalfarmer

    Pretty duck

    I ordered three Swedish blues for my son because he liked that they were “blue.” Two of the three are mostly white with blue tinged beaks and feet. They are beautiful ducks and very sweet. I am definitely considering ordering more.

  5. Lorrilee

    Beautiful ducks

    I purchased 4 females last spring! They’re beautiful and entertaining! They also lay delicious large eggs!

  6. BearMurdock

    Great Ducks

    Our swedish blues have been great to have around the farm. We have four swedish blues that arrived healthy and grew fast. They are quite a comedy and lay eggs consistently. They stay close to the coop and don’t wander into trouble. They are vocal and communicate well when predators are near.. I highly recommend this breed.

  7. Rob T.

    Great ducks, good sized and calm.

    We have had a variety of ducks and so far other then wanting say a meat bird we like the Blue Swedish the best.

    Personality wise they are calm and see WAY less skittish then other ducks (including Pekings, Campbells, and Roans raised in the same brood)

    They are very pretty and have been fairly good layers for us.

    They also seem to be less escape/wonder prone then others. Love em.

  8. Sheila

    Blue Swedish Ducks—-Beautiful

    They are beautiful birds and I will be ordering more in Spring 2020. Very calm. They were healthy and thriving until predators wiped us out.

  9. birdntrees

    Pretty

    I think the blues are a very pretty bird They fit right in with the rest of my chickens, cats, goats, and all the other critters.

  10. Courtney B

    Great ducks

    Super friendly ducks, have gotten along well with my Cayuga, Muscovy and Mallards. Would buy again.

  11. Swede lover

    Swedish ducks are awesome!!!

    Got these ducks and black Swedish 5 months ago. These are awesome ducks, great ducks to have in your yard. Really good for showing too! I got best breeding pair and best market ducks at my fair. Cackle is the best one I know for all of there things out there. HIGHLY recommend Cackle to everyone out there looking to have poultry.

  12. Tiffany

    Love cackle- not a Blue fan

    We have several different hen breeds and we found our blue Swedish was crazy! The description of the breed reads calm and great backyard pet… the one we received was spastic and wild even with taming and daily handling. She died from a heart attack recently as she got separated from her friends by accident and was so upset she killed over right in front of me. My Pekin, Rouen, Cayuga, and Ancona are super sweet and great layers in their first season. I plan to get more hens this spring but would not purchase this breed again as we like them to be very tame.

  13. Ruby

    Good expierience

    A couple months ago the three ducks I ordered came in alive and healthy. They were the cutest little things ever! But now since my ducks are grown up two of them are definitely blue Swedish ducks but another is white and sorta silver I’m not sure what happened there but other then that they’re all super cute and friendly! Thank you CackleHatchery!

    Thank You! The chicks arrived early this morning. On little turkey did not make it;however, you sent an extra so we received the exact number of (living) birds we ordered. They are all doing very well! As always, we are very happy with out ordering experience with Cackle Hatchery! Thank you!
