Thanks for the tip on the mass poultry chat group. I just tried to search it to put a request in to join, but I don't see it. Does it go by a specific name?
We have six Mallard ducks (two drakes and four hens) in need of a new home. They are all 15 months old. Five are pure Mallard and one is Mallard/Welsh Harlequin cross (drake). They are very productive but we are no longer able to care for them in our backyard setting and are looking for a good...

That's helpful! We had a dozen WH eggs we were incubating along with the Mallards but many ended up to be not fertilized. Do you have any ducklings or only mature birds? Where in NY are you?
Does anyone know where I can get some young ducklings asap? I have a day-old Mallard single hatchling that needs some company desperately. Willing to consider other lightweight breeds especially WH or Buf and will drive to pick up most anywhere in New England. Please let me know if you know of...
