I'm about to hatch duck eggs in my new incubator. I am unable to keep the ducklings and was wondering if anyone wants them? If anyone does, please email me to tell me at mdyl07438@yahoo.com. My incubator can hold about 15 eggs at a time. I'm getting the eggs from my neighbor. So they are free! The incubator is on hold(incubator should be here tomorrow - 1/30/13) I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO PUT DOWN THE LITTLE DUCKIES. PLEASE HELP BY TAKING THEM TO A GOOD HOME!

thank you,
Matthew Dyl

What area are you in? This is something rather important considering you probably wouldn't want to ship your babies.

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you.

Ok I see where you guys are going. I will ask my neighbor to hold off on giving me the eggs. But please, will someone take them? Also by putting them down I mean not giving them to a home where they won't be cooked, I want them to be loved and raised properly. They are white Peking ducks.

Thank you for your opinions,
Matthew Dyl
