the Silver Appleyard and the Silver Appleyard Miniature
We have sold out of birds hatched last year so are now taking
expressions of interest for the 2007 season. We have a limited number of birds we can rear in any one year so please book early for collection in the autumn. If you want eggs for hatching or day old ducklings please ask - limited supplies should be available between late spring to mid summer.
The Silver Appleyard (sometimes known as the Large Appleyard) was originally produced in Great Britain It is a good layer, an excellent table bird and attractive
to look at.
THE
FEMALE: The ducks head and neck are silver white with a band of brown flecked
fawn over the crown and back of their neck. This band merges into the heavily
fawn flecked feathering of her back without a break. A fine fawn line marks
through the eye. most of the body from breast to flank is creamy white.
The tail is darker fawn as are the wings. Her bill is yellow with a brown
saddle.
The
Silver
Appleyard Miniature was developed by Tom Bartlett
of Folly Farm in the 1980's with the same general characteristics and colour
as for the large just in miniature.
It
is easily confused with the Silver Bantam
by some ; this was originally known as the Silver Appleyard Bantam and
was produced by Reginald Appleyard as a cross between a small khaki Campbell
and a white Call Drake in the 1940's. |
