How many Ducks does everyone have.
There were a bunch of additions since the 3780 was posted, but they didn't add. So I'm going to add my numbers to the 3780. I had 15 ducklings hatch the other day, so 3780 + 15 = 3795 :D This is on top of the 3 adults and 15 older ducklings that I've already included in this count. -
