Photos of Cayuga Ducks

Photos of Cayuga ducks at USA Duck Team HQ farm and some of our partner farms.

Cayuga ducks are one of the few truly American heritage breeds, developed in New York in the 1840s and recognized by the American Poultry Association in 1874. Their black plumage shows an iridescent beetle-green sheen in sunlight that makes them unlike any other duck breed. Our Dempsey Plus Lemonade line has placed in national and state shows and has been developed over four years of selective breeding for both show quality and meat-egg crossover performance.

Our headquarters flock in Kansas City, KS is an NPIP-certified hatchery. We work with a network of 25 farms across Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Ohio, and Indiana to distribute quality genetics to homesteaders and small producers throughout the Midwest. The photos here show our birds at headquarters and at partner farms across the network.
