Buying Hatching Eggs

[theycallmechickmagnet]

Does anyone know where I can buy a small number of hatching eggs (1-2) for Indian Runner Ducks? I've looked everywhere, all the online hatcheries. They charge ridiculous prices for a smaller amount of eggs and it's even more expensive than buying a ton of eggs. I don't have room for 20 ducks I really only want 1 (or 2). Do any of y'all sell? (If that's allowed on here)

Try posting this on your state thread, and perhaps you can find some local eggs.

How do I do that? And I don't mind where the eggs come from I can pay for shipping

Might be cheaper to just get ducklings

Same thing with ducklings too

If your going to be picky about breed your going to pay more, if you just want cheap ducks go to craigslist.

$80 for 1 duck tho, really? I was just trying to find if there's anyone on here who ships eggs because it's so much easier than buying live babies

Some folks sell them. I'd post in ducks and your state thread, and check on Craigslist.

Ducklings are a seasonal product and your going into the off season. $80 Is not as outrageous as you think. I'm sure lots of people have paid much more then $80 for a good duck. I was looking at getting some shipped form holderreads and shipping for 4 ducks was over $300, just in shipping. So If you just want a cheap yard duck look on craigslist, if you want small quantity chocolate runner yeah its probably $80 for two with shipping from metzer farms.
