Duck-a-holics Anonymous?

Just slide an egg under the chicken and when it hatches tell him "dad, look what i found! i dont know where it came from!!"

I have five nests of eggs going right now, among 7 duck hens! 3 of our Khaki Campbell ladies are sharing one, cannot wait to see how that turns out.

My hope is to keep mothers and ducklings together in separate pens, we'll just have to see how it goes. *cross fingers*

I went my whole life with this crazy insatiable desire do have ducks. Ducks make sad people happy, even duck eatrs like Red Maple (unfortunately). You will eventually get to have the joy of a loving quacky duck. Im sure of it. My parents wouldnt let me have ducks, so i waited. Now my husband has to deal with the reprocussion: a lifetime supply of ducks!
 
I'm greencastle_DUCKS and I am a duck-o-holic!

I only have 11 ducks so I am twitching all the time. I'm looking for my fix. I'm sending out emails to buy more baby Swedes, and Calls. I'm also collecting Swedish eggs to hatch. I AM a duck-o-holic
 
Well, since everyone is showing off their duck photos, here's some of the 60 or 70 ducklings I saw this year.

That one on the right had some kind of injury, but it didn't hamper him in any way. He was swimming at eating like everyone else. They disappeared for a while, but I think I saw them again about five or six weeks later and the injury had healed.

I never saw so many ducklings as I did this year. And, they had a good survival rate in this area with about 65% which is double the average for wild ducks.

They sure were fun while they lasted!

(PS, that's 53 ducks, in my car, during our duck rescue. We now only have 11 ducks.. And 17 geese. And 30ish chickens.)

I imagine them talking to each other.
"quite crowded in here isnt it?"
"yes, I am a little warm too, no air conditioning?"
"i am sure she will turn it on after this picture, just smile and wait."
"oh thank goodness for duck lovers!"
"i believe you are standing on my foot."
"oh so sorry, here, is that better?"
"yes, much better, thank you."
"think we will be swimming soon?"
the thought of swimming gets everyone quacking.
"let's go! on to better places!"
