So, I've spent the last two months trying to hatch call ducks eggs. Four days ago, I finally got lucky on my second hatch and one duckling hatched. Even though I didn't have it for very long, I loved that duckling with all my heart. Just this morning, I was changing its water before school. I didn't realize it had gotten out nor that it was behind me. When I got up to walk away, I felt something fuzzy under my foot. To my absolute horror, I looked down to see that I had stepped on and killed this little duckling I tried so hard to get. I've been beside myself all day and unable to leave the house for fear of breaking down in tears in public.
Now for the reason I posted this. I need to find more call ducklings. There are some places selling fertilized eggs, but I'd rather not go through another month of incubation for eggs that may or may not hatch. Does anyone know of ANY PLACE that's selling and shipping (unless there is a seller around SE Virginia or NE North Carolina) baby call ducks at this time of year? I'm willing to pay almost any price. If there isn't a place, does anyone have any advice on how to be more successful with the next hatch I do? Any and all information would be more appreciated than you could ever imagine right now...
