So I found a pair of Mandarin ducks on craigslist. 60 bucks for the pair, 2 years old, hen is laying regularly, male is pinioned female isnt. I just talked to my parents, and they are allowing me to get them. YAY! I am soooooooo very excited. AAAAAHHHHHHAAAHHHH!!!!
Congrats! I'm jealous, I had ducks when I wa syoung and they were amazing. Now I have chickens and love them but still would love to have ducks too!
Awe you need to get some. They are so much fun. Now i am nervouse I cant get ahold of the lady that has them. I am hoping to pick them up tomorrow. Does anyone know since the male is pinioned how low i have to make there nestin area. And can he still jump/half fly up on to branches or will he be unable to do any of this? I am going to have to look for a pond for them. Haha!
