    Looking to re-home 3 Drakes in NH.

    As much as this hurts my duck loving heart, we are in need of a great home for our 3 (Bailey, Mac, and Scout) drakes. Our flock of 8 has only 5 girls and sadly (although we were praying we were the exception 🤣) the boys are becoming a little too rough with them. They are well trained, and...
