INTRODUCING to Dusky Feathers Waterfowl…the much requested Cayuga!!! The Cayuga is a medium-sized, heavy breed. The unmistakable plumage of the Cayuga is black with an iridescent green/blue/purple sheen in the sunlight that often develops white mottling with age. Cayugas are excellent at foraging and love living the pasture life! The meat of the Cayuga is reputed to be tender and of fine quality. Similar to the Saxony they grow fast and can be butchered by 12 weeks. Cayuga ducks are decent layers of large eggs and will also go broody which make them an excellent homesteader duck. Eggs are initially black in color, but as the season progresses, egg color lightens to gray and eventually they become white. And to top it all off…the Cayuga are one of the hardiest breeds of duck easily able to tolerate our cold winters. (personal note: they look AMAZING together with Saxony! The two colors complement each other ridiculously well!)
