    My ducks arrived this morning.

    They are all healthy and active. I love them already. When I saw how small they are, I decided to go with a chick waterer for the first week or so. The pan I had fixed looked huge beside them. LOL Aren't they cute?

    Would an experienced duck owner look at this?

    I have day old ducklings coming tomorrow. I think I have everything ready for them. Will this work ok for a waterer for them to begin with. It is 4.5 inches high and holds 2 gallons of water, but I have added 2 bricks to keep them from getting into it at first. I know they need to be able to dip...

    Question about raising different breeds together

    I want to order some ducklings. I can't seem to make up my mind on one breed. So I thought I would get a few Anconas, runners, Cayugas, and Welsh Harlequins. Will these breeds all get along ok together? I have to order a minimum of 15 to get them mailed to me. I want them to be good foragers. I...

    New from northwest Missouri

    Hello, I have been reading this forum for a couple of months and decided to join. I set eggs in my Hova-Bator 3 weeks ago. Tonight I can here peeping. I am so excited. I have not used the incubator for about 10 years and wasn't sure it even still worked right, but I have one chick out and...
