LOVE the Duck houses on here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have a pond I hope to get my ducks too within the next few weeks, how do I make a house that they can access to the pond, but also keep the predators out? I was thinking about trying to fence a portion of the area off, would that work? Or should...
WOLF KIM - I only gave then drinking water, and took it away a few minutes after they took some drinks, just like ideal told me to do. 2 died right away, so then I was paranoid to give them water at all.......It's so hard breaking:(
OH, I have been looking for older ducks, I don't have much luck with the ducklings!!! I have a fawn and white runner duck that is soooooo lonely:)
Is it possible to ship them, as I am in Columbia, MO????

I would love to find a place that sells ducks that are about a month or two old. I have not had good luck with the hatchilings, as they always seem to get "water logged". I have went through about 15-20 hatchlings, and my lonely duck runner wants a friend so bad!!!!!!!!

I am glad to know that I am not the only one clueless to ducks. My daughter and I got a peking and a mallard this weekend, not really sure what to do with them. They are very friendly!!! A Duck website like this one would be good.

I am no cochin bantam expert either. I just got some back in the end of August, and LOVE THEM!!!! I got a pure black roo, and a mottled female. Both are very very friendly. As a matter of fact, the roo has been crowing since he was about 9 weeks old. It is very cute!!!!
