Right now we have an even balance of male/female in our flock - two of each. This only works because the girl of choice outweighs the two guys combined, so they're not likely to drown her.
I'd like to get another girl or two, and would really like to find another bantam for our Australian Spotted guy. The other male is half-bantam, so still pretty small.
Is there anyone selling sexed bantam ducklings?
Or adult birds that won't cost more in shipping than the bird itself? I'm in western NY.
How do you find out about things like local poultry groups or shows?
How about other small breeds that are available as sexed ducklings?
The kids had a hard enough time giving away the extra ducklings to good homes that promised not eat them, and we only have space for maybe two more, so getting straight run or hatching isn't an option.
Thanks!
