    ID my ducks, please!

    We bought them at Tractor supply as week-olds listed as Khaki Campbells, but...highly doubting that now. They are about 15 wow old. Center two are drakes. Been doing the raspy quack for quite some time, just got curly tail feathers this past week. Girls are VERY loud. They are very vertical...

    Hello everyone!

    Hi! I'm new here :) I'm Vallere, mama of 4 (with another on the way) in eastern NC. We bought a few acres off the beaten path about a year ago, and have been slowly converting it into our farm.
