    Black East Indies ducks finally arrived. (pics included)

    Mandarins are way cool looking as well. I would have loved to have gotten them also. I mainly got the black east indies to be a contrast to the white crested ducks. Figured they might look cute together swimming around in the pond. I know one thing for sure... too many ducks make a big mess fast.

    Quick ??? about heat lamp and heat.....

    I would love to post some pics, but they seem to be having an awful time getting the things to hatch out. It has been 2 times now that they have had a bad hatch and not been able to send them to me. They were supposed to get here today and I called and they said .... oh sorry, the hatch didn't...

In one box i have 21 white crested ducks and the box is 4ft by 4 ft by 2ft high. The first week i had them in there i had the light...

    what kind of shavings

    I happen to have access to a hardwood sawmill and was wondering if the hardwood sawdust would be ok. The pine shavings I have been having to buy and I could get the hardwood sawdust for free.

    One wobbley duck problem.

    I will put it in a widemouth quart mason jar tonight and also, where might I find brewers yeast. I live in a dry county and the surrounding counties are all dry as well. Is it something used for other things as well that a small town grocer might have? Is there something else that might work...

    I feed them Dumor Chick Starter/Grower 20%. Does not say medicated anywhere on the bag. They would have to tell you if it was medicated right?

    One wobbley duck problem.

    On Wednesday I received 21 white crested ducks. Ordered 20, and it seems 1 of them is having a hard time.
