I call my baby ducks the same thing! My husband laughs at me, so I'll have to tell him I'm not the only weird one!!
I ended up ordering some from Ideal! Thank you very much for the offer! I think even if we met halfway it'd still be a major haul for both of us... I can nearly throw a baseball into Florida from my house!

I was JUST looking at Ideal's website!! We lost a runner duck last night and the hubs (who initially was all against me getting chickens) keeps asking about getting some buff cochins!
I use a wire dog crate, too. I had eleven 2-month old bantams in my pen when my order of larger breeds came in. I think I kept the youngins in the crate for about a week or so (they were 2 weeks old when I put them in the crate in the run). When I let them out together, all was well!! They...
