I know people that have bought them from TSC and never had a problem with anything. I guess it is maybe the store you get them from or the people I know were exceedingly lucky.

According to their site they will vaccinate if the Farm Store requests it of the purchaser.

So sorry that this happened. Things can happen so fast and I have two small dogs so if any of mine would get out I know they would try to go after them. If I yell though they stop as my little finch bird has gotten out before and my Chihuahua just went up and sniffed it and left it alone...

Our Tractor Supply just grabs a worker from the floor to get the 6 ducks or chicks that a person wants. They have no knowledge as the store cannot afford to hire a reputable person that might know something about them and keep them in a department that only needs help occasionally. My last two...

I tried to get my Call Ducklings from a local gal with an incubator and she lost the whole batch but 2 out of 18 eggs. She had already sold them and it was sad to have my hopes up for all of those days only to have them all die. She was using shipped eggs and had never done it before but never...

Metzer Farms is the only hatchery I know of that will let you buy only 2 birds. I hated ordering them for March 25th but that is when we have our spring break and no other place has Call Ducks and the colors I want. They will be unsexed and I pray that they make it here alright. They have a...

That is great that some TSC only make you buy 4 birds. Ours makes us buy 6. I have purchased my ducklings from Rural King before only having to buy 2. Each time I have gotten a Hen and drake. Luckily not two drakes. Most of the drakes have all been rehomed. I am buying two ducklings from...

I was in our Rural King over the weekend and they are still going with 2 Ducklings and 6 chicks so that is good for me.

I found my two Muscovy babies over an hour away from my house off of Craigslist. It was a pretty scary place though with all kinds of animals and a strange person bringing them to us. I was happy to pay and leave as quickly as I could as it was way off of the beaten path in no mans land.

Yes, thank you so much. I tried to let other Ohioians know that I had misunderstood the law on the Ohio Site. Once I looked it back up I knew I had taken it wrong. They are also talking about lessening it to three so hopefully they will do that soon. I appreciate you fixing it for me...

I just saw online where they are trying to revise the limit to be sold in Ohio from 6 to 3 of chicks and ducklings but it still says they must be 4 weeks old. I wonder if that is a typo and it should have read 4 days old??? I can't imagine any feed store here wanting to get 4 week old...

Our Tractor Supply here in Ohio told me that it is now the law that they have to sell 6 at a time. I looked up the law and it said as of April 7th of 2023 no one will be able to sell Chicks or Ducklings less than 4 weeks old and they have to be sold in lots of six. It said it did not matter...

In Ohio they told me it changed to 6 chicks and 6 ducklings for a minimum. I was surprised as Rural King used to sell only 2 ducklings but I have not bought any this year from them.

I was very fortunate to get a date to be at our post office. I went down to talk to them before the arrival date and they called me before the post office even opened at 6am, let me in and I got my ducklings from Metzer and they arrived perfectly healthy. I think a lot depends too on the...

At our Rural King you only have to buy 2 ducklings so I did that last February. I was surprised that you only had to buy two and was glad as I did not want more than that.

You are most welcome. Ducks are Messy but I still love them. Mine have a large sand based pen with 6 different houses on it and 13 water sources. No pond but a real mess when I dump all of their water our daily and give them fresh with the hose. I love eating their eggs daily and so far they...

I had ordered my Mallards pinioned from Metzer but they forgot to do that. It would have made them unable to fly away. I now clip one wing as yes they can fly and people that I have sold them to have had them fly away never to be seen again. Some people think that the ones from the hatcheries...

Our Rural King near me makes you buy 6 Chicks but only 2 Ducklings or Turkeys. I got two Ducks a year ago and ended up with a drake and hen. I rehome the Drake but kept the hen. The only good thing I find from hatcheries is that you can pick the sex of them, that is if they get it right. I...

I only ordered two Mallard Ducklings from Metzer two years ago. They arrived just fine but ducks may be more heartier than chicks. They had the jel to drink and the heat pack. I still have them and one of them is who is still giving me one of my daily eggs. They have been very healthy and I...

I have done both, ordered online and bought at our local Rural King. I got my two sexed Mallard female ducklings from Metzer and they arrived just fine. The two ducklings that I bought from Rural King were Khaki Campbell and being unsexed I got a boy and a girl and rehomed the boy later on as...
