I will get better ones later these guys have quite the unique color to them they look cooler in person like one looks like a orange and one has a brown head and white body another one has chocolate brown head and a brown butt!! there so cute and momma didn't waste no time having them!!

They're so cute. Glad she didn't have problems or trying to hold them in. It's pretty exciting, so far this has been a really good year.

that's nice most houses anymore don't even live on a half acre

Yeah It's a shame that most houses don't have much property anymore, some houses we pass have backyards about 30' wide and 20 feet back…we are lucky to have more.

How big is the pond you're talking about? I don't know a lot about ducks having never kept them, but I fish, and have seen some snapping turtles that could take down a duck easily.

i will have to ask my dad
I am thinking about getting like 6 or more ducks ( I already have 6) and sending the more puny ones up there so that I can get the less puny ducks for 4-h

does anybody know anything on crested ducks I have read lots about them but am worried that this one duck I call Aflac will hurt her when trying to mate with her because he grabs the poof on her head

I used the black crates that cilantro or tomatoes come in at the grocery store and filled with hay or wood chips and they loved in to where two or three can snuggle and sleep.
