Indian Runners or Runner ducks are a breed of Anas platyrhynchos domesticus, the domestic duck. They stand erect like penguins and, rather than waddling or flying, they run. They were bred on the Indonesian islands of Lombok, Java and Bali. Egg production has been measured at over 173 eggs per year; much higher claims have been made without reliable evidence. The breed arrived in the Western world in the 19th century; they have since been bred to have a wide variety of colours.
