I am not on the east coast, but can share that I ordered ducklings from Metzer and all of mine arrived healthy the day after I was expecting them. I was worried too, but it actually worked out really well. Love my flock and the care Metzer farms took with the shipping and notification. Good luck!

I did use one just like this previously. I have 5 ducks and they loved it. I had to build some steps on the outside and the inside for them to get in. On the outside I used blocks of wood, inside I added bricks. I did change the water every two to three days because they loved the fresh...

Yes, I will write a letter on Monday!
