    New ducklings ship on Monday!

    They are so cute! What is it with ducklings and immediately running to the sides of their brooder and digging under the bedding?? My girls got here this morning too, all safe and sound (whew!). I had been kicking around the idea to name them Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup, and now that they're...

    New ducklings ship on Monday!

    Aaagh, I shouldn't have said anything :x From the threads I've read on this site and others, people very rarely lose birds; I just had unusually bad luck and lost a total of three out of ten. Metzer's customer service is great though and they're sending me another Chocolate Runner...

    Golden 300's/White Layer Thread

    Oh no :( It wouldn't be the first I've heard of a drake picking a fight he couldn't win... poor thing. I can't imagine I'll be buying any boys soon, though - no more room for ducklings, still too much of a weenie to raise meat birds haha. Does anyone have any advice for introducing new...

    Fowl drawing!!!!!ends:July 31st!!!

    Wow!! These are all fantastic :D I hope more people will come and post. I just have my avatar drawing, which I painted on the side of the duck house a couple weeks ago. It's in honor of my dad, who's a big OSU fan :) The duck herself is in memory of our big Pekin, Cinderella Duck (Pekin)...
