Hello all:
We've been raising Australian Spotteds (originally from David Holderread's eggs) for the past 16 years. Our stable flock is down to ten (six ducks, four drakes). We are nearing retirement and hope to travel, so are looking at options for preserving the breed by selling off pairs for breeding. If you don't know about this breed, Australian Spotteds are super intelligent, friendly, great mothers, good weeders, and lay delicious green eggs from April to August. They are also a very rare breed and slowly dying out ever since Holderread Farms stopped rearing them. They have brought us endless joy.
There are a number of good prior posts with descriptions on BYC for more background.
We live in the midcoast region of Maine and are offering breeding pairs for $200/pair. Anyone with interest can email us directly at [email protected].
With warm regards to everyone,
James and Kim
