Quickrete pond anyone?
Although a few words of advice.... - Have a team of ppl to help...I did mine solo and it's a hell of a workout hand mixing and pouring that much concrete after you're already beat from digging a hole... I'm 105lbs and literally pushed myself to the MAX. - Don't use quickrete (my pool is over... -

How long until ducks tame?

Difference between Rouen and Mallard.

Two drakes -mallard and rouen
I, unfortunately, need to rehome my two babies. I have moved and no longer have the space or time. For them anymore.
