These perching birds make good pet ducks because they are easy to care for and don’t require a lot of effort.
Mandarin Ducks are very active and need plenty of room to move around. They are also very good swimmers and can be very entertaining to watch. If you are looking for a charming and interesting duck to add to your home, the Mandarin Duck should definitely be on your list.

Easy to care for, easy to raise and arguably one of the worlds most beautiful birds, no wonder Mandarin Ducks are our top selling ducks. Available in brilliant normal coloration or in the elegant white color mutation these birds are sure to add some beauty to your water. Mandarins like their cousin the wood duck are great birds for beginners. They are cold hardy and can be kept in a mixed collection. The Mandarin Duck often will breed their first spring. They will use a raised style box for nesting. For best fertility it is recommended to keep mandarins in pairs. Mandarins are a nervous duck in the aviary but not as nervous as the wood duck. They also like to have perches and hiding places. If kept on open water it is recommended that Mandarin Ducks be kept pinioned or at least that they be kept wing clipped.
They have no special dietary needs and can be feed the same as other waterfowl. For more info on what we feed our birds here at our Farm reach out to us. More information on Mandarin Ducks can be found on our Mandarin Duck page.
Other information that pertains to Mandarins can be found on our "temperament" post and our" How we raise our ducks" post.
For information on aviary construction for mandarin ducks please check out the about "Our Aviaries" post which will be made available soon. More details about care and breeding of the Mandarin duck can also be found in each individual listing.
Backyard poultry breeders will find the White Mandarin Duck to be a beautiful bird and a bird that is easy to keep. Many are even kept in urban settings because they do not make as much noise as some other breeds.
The White Mandarin Duck is a color mutation variety of the Mandarin Duck breed. Mandarins are native to Russia, Japan, and China. They are perching ducks meaning that they prefer to nest in trees or nesting boxes.
Mandarin ducks come in a variety of color mutations with white being the most common color mutation for domestically raised birds. The whites have various shades of white plumage over their entire body and head. Their bills are red.
They eat by making shallow dives and so are also known as "dabblers." While they can dive as many as four feet deep, they prefer to dip just their heads under the water and graze on the insects and plant life just under the surface.
Although they spend a great deal of time in the water, Mandarins nest in the trees. Unfortunately, forests near wetlands are disappearing at a rapid rate and so the wild, native population is dwindling at an alarming pace.
Mandarins do well in captivity, as long as they are kept in covered aviaries or pinioned. They fly well and have been known to travel as far as 500 miles in 24 hours. Although the wild population is suffering, there is a healthy captive population! Looking to own a pair? Reach out to us anytime
8 Colorful Facts About Mandarin Ducks
The mandarin duck (Aix galericulata) is considered one of the most beautiful birds in the world. This is because of its stunning plumage, which is made up of an array of colors that you can't help but notice. But there's more to this species than just flashy feathers. Whether it's their complex courting ritual or their cultural significance, there's a lot to know about the mandarin duck. Here are some of the most interesting facts about this colorful creature.
1. Female Mandarin Ducks Lack the Males' Colorful Look
Mandarin ducks are known for their eye-catching look — their red bill; purple breast; crest of black, green, blue, and copper; and golden-orange wings. And yet, that trait is not universal for the species. As with many other bird species, only the males have this eye-dazzling appearance, while female mandarin ducks have less eye-catching coloring. They have gray- or cream-colored feathers with bills to match.
That doesn't mean female mandarin ducks have no identifying features, however. Their eyes stand out because of a white ring that encircles them and then extends to a stripe along the face.
2. Male Mandarin Ducks Resemble Females When Molting
Like other waterfowl, the male mandarin duck molts its feathers after mating season. But it does not immediately return to its colorful glory. Instead, it molts into its eclipse plumage made up of brown and gray feathers, making it look like its female counterparts. Often, the only way to tell them apart at this time is to look at their bills — the males will retain the red beak that females lack. In the fall, male mandarin ducks will molt again into their breeding plumage to prepare for the breeding season.
3. They Hail From East Asia, but Their Range Is Wide
Mandarin ducks are native to China, Japan, Korea, and eastern Russia, but habitat destruction has reduced the ducks' population in these areas. The good news is that the species can thrive outside of its native range. Populations can be found across Europe and in the United States. This wide range is why, despite the global population decreasing, the IUCN categorizes the mandarin duck as being of least concern.
4. Their Range Increase Did Not Happen Naturally
While the mandarin duck is widespread, this expansion did not happen naturally. The ducks were imported to England in the mid-18th century because of their beautiful colors. However, they didn't begin to breed in the wild until the 1930s after escaping from private grounds. As of the mid-1980s, the British population was estimated to be approximately 7,000 ducks. Found in counties in North Carolina and California, the populations in the United States can likely be traced back to private collections. One male famously popped up in New York City's Central Park in October 2018, but no one knows how it arrived.
5. Mandarin Ducks Are Symbols of Love and Fidelity
Mandarin ducks are famous for being monogamous, meaning they mate for life. Because of this, the creature has become a symbol of love and fidelity for couples in China, Japan, and Korea. It's common for a pair of figurines of these ducks to be gifted to newlyweds, and they are often utilized as a feng shui cure to help maintain a healthy relationship.
There are references to the duck as far back as the beginnings of Buddhism; there is a legend in which a pair of mandarin ducks impress with their affection for one another.3 They appear in Japanese mythology and Confucianism as well.
6. They Have an Elaborate Courtship Ritual
While male mandarin ducks' colorful plumage helps them attract a mate, they still have to work for it. Like many other bird species, mandarin ducks perform a specialized courtship routine. The males shake, bob their heads, mock drink, and mock preen, all while raising their crest and orange "sail" feathers to show off. Despite being generally quiet creatures, they also incorporate sound into their courtship in the form of a whistling call.
7. Male Mandarin Ducks Are Absent Fathers
Despite being monogamous, mandarin duck pairs don't take on the duties of parenting equally. The male sticks around for the eggs' 28- to 33-day incubation period, but once they are hatched, he leaves. The mother mandarin is left to rear the nine to 12 ducklings on her own.
Meanwhile, the male mandarin ducks molt into their eclipse plumage and, eventually, back to its breeding plumage to prepare for the following breeding season.
8. Newborn Mandarin Ducks Are Daredevils
A mother mandarin duck lays her eggs in the hollow of a tree up to 30 feet from the ground, but after the ducklings hatch, they quickly need to get to water.4 The newborn creatures can't yet fly, but that doesn't stop them from finding their way to the ground. With the mother mandarin down below offering encouraging calls, each duckling takes a leap, launching itself out of the tree's hollow and free-falling to the ground. Grass and fallen leaves cushion its fall, and the baby mandarins emerge unharmed.

Rhea chicks shelby NC strong and healthy I know how to raise them the correct way.
Surprise! We thought we had two boys until this mating season started raising our suspicions (hopes) that we had a pair! Question: Zero is laying her eggs (2 so far) right in front of the gate. For access purposes & because of foot traffic I’d love for the nest to be in a different spot. The male has not made an actual nest so far (I had read that he would make one for her to deposit eggs in) so I’m not sure what to do. I was not wanting to incubate. Appreciate any advice!
