I could send you some pekin duck eggs to hatch if you want to pay for shipping? I've never mailed eggs but I would double bubble and styrofoam wrap them.

Just trying to catch up from my other subscriptions & friends made on this forum! Wowzers! I appreciate the offer hillfloweranch! I've got a local connection - she has some beautiful gray & white muscovies! I've had the whites before, doubt they were French though. Still, they were yummy! I'd like to try raising turkeys, but I think the really big ones, wouldn't fit in our plucker machine. I might consider the midget whites in future. There's so much poultry I want, that I really have to plan things out. It takes a long time to get a coop built, because hubby still works full time & likes to rest on weekends. He did a great job on the poop board project! My only regret was not having it to begin with! It's awesome! So much better to keep coop clean & smelling better.
