So I guess you still haven't found any replacements?

I wonder how hard it is to send eggs from Canada?

Nope... I just am keeping some of my ducklings to use as breeders next spring... Major inbreeding...

I will decide in the spring if I wanna mail order ducklings from a hatchery.

I wish Metzer had them still. There are a few breeders here that sell on Craigslist... But I would rather have hatching eggs... I just got done writing about this on another thread... With all the diseases that are out there and parasites.... I would rather start with a clean slate for any of my poultry.

I totally get that!

From what I understand, chicks tend to be pretty clean, it is older birds, or birds that have touched the rest of the flock that are more likely to have issues.

There is one hatchery... Uh.... Country something? Anyway, they sell color choices, you can pick black, blue, chocolate, white, or assortment. A couple of those colors are pied, one is solid. Anyway, I think it is the only hatchery that offers chocolate. Some have a grab bag of colors that might include chocolate, most carry only white.
