Thank you!

Hello all! We received our newest batch of ducklings on May 27, 2020. Hatched May 25, 2020. We ordered and received 4 Pekin hens and 5 Pekin drakes from Metzers. Of the four Pekin hens we were supposed to receive, one of them is actually a Fawn/White Indian Runner we've named Indie. She's a...

sourland, I believe that will be the avenue we'll be heading down. Still interested in winnowing down to 2 drakes though. Would like to do so in a manner that does not upset Baby Girl. May very well re-home them together, providing I get the green light from Mrs. Duck. If unable to go that...

Miss Lydia, Yup, I hear what you're saying! I think it's remarkable, that, despite the number of ducks we've had over the past 10 months, these two are almost joined at the hip. They're the Ozzie and Harriet, the Bonnie and Clyde, the Sonny and Cher of our duck fiefdom. Okay, they don't sing...

sourland, My concern with keeping him is that I may be a bit over the ratio for the number of drakes I have to the number of hens I have. Is 4 drakes to 9 hens OK? Before I thinned out our flock, we had 9 drakes to 5 hens and it got pretty bad until I removed 7 of the drakes. Our girls were...

Hello All! I'm getting to the point where I want to get serious about breeding my ducks and getting the best quality of a specific breed, as well as winnowing down the number of drakes to ducks. We have nine ducks and 4 drakes. Five of the ducks are of no real consequence in terms of what type...

Kiki, Thank you!

Since my wife and I are also scrappers of just about anything electronic, mechanical, metal etc., we had/have a fair amount of stuff we could choose from to save building costs. All of the wood was purchased new, as were the wheels, nuts bolts, washers, screws, 1/2" all-thread and hardware...

We have two duck tractors. Yes, they're a bit on the small side. Ooops, had no idea at the time what a 9-10lb duck looked like. Been a very, very long time (I was a kid) since I had a big duck. To answer any questions, yes, I'm almost finished building out a 10'Wx24'Lx7'4"T duck barn. Photos of...

I'll have to get back, still trying to figure out best way to attach pics and info. May take a bit.........

Hi, hello and how are you? My wife and I started raising ducks in March and April of this year. Despite that, I'm no stranger to ducks and had a couple when I was in my early teens (2 Pekins & 2 wild/tamed pigeons), and again when I was in my early thirties (10 mallards). Stories about those...
