duck price

[4hduckproject]

Fairs differ hugely in the buyers that attend, so I would ask someone who's been to this fair and sold poultry. Do you have a 4-H leader who shows poultry?

I don’t have a 4h leader who shows poultry. Unfortunately, the fair I participate in only has nine duck entries and the ducks do not get taken to market. I need someone to take him once the fair is done.

I don't really know for meat, around £20 I would think, but you could make £35-40 if you sold him for meat. He is a nice drake. Do these figures seem reasonable?

they do. Thank you much.

I would have thought he would go for 40, wouldn't you?

Also, I have a female pekin around the same size as my drake. Do you think I could sell them both as a breeding pair? Sorry for all the questions, I’m new.

Yes, you could sell them as a breeding pair, perhaps £70-80 for the 2? That's around 100 dollars, isn't it? Sorry, I'm English, so I'm using my currency!

Most people on this forum are American, I assume you are because it says you live in America on your profile???

I do think it’s around $100. Thank you for your help. I appreciate it!!

Seriously, I would ask the people who attend your fair. They should know the regional prices and demand better than anyone here can guess. A $100 breeding pair would never sell where I live. $50 for the pair, maybe. If you found the right buyer.

No problem, do you have any other questions? Do you have a google or gmail account so you can write us a review? It would be greatly appreciated.
