Don't tell me the Co-ops are getting ducklings....please don't tell me that. I have to go to the Co-op to get supplies and if there's ducklings there I won't be able to come home without some. WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
How can you resist? They are so soft and cuddly and cute! AND ducks and geese are good to help get rid of snakes on property. At least, that is what old people around have always told me. I plan to get a couple of geese as soon as my field is fenced in for that reason and to keep down on the weeds and such.
I'm right there with ya on the trying to resist thing. I keep seeing pictures of people rabbits, and I am sooo trying to resist finding some nice Holland Lops and starting with rabbits again!

The co-op in Anderson County posted an ad on craigslist listing the chicks that they have and will be getting in. I'm afraid to call the one here in Grainger County.
You don't need them.... they are messy..... but if you love them - why not? I like mine well enough to not mind cleaning up after them. I guess that is how you can measure it - do you love them enough to clean up after them, and do with a little less perfect area in your yard.

I'm in Hawkins county. I was at our Co-op yesterday but I didn't go inside, hubby did. But I do have to go next week to pick up feed, grass seed, and whatnots. If they have ducklings, I won't be able to resist!
I already have tons of ducks, duck eggs in the incubator going to hatch any day, geese, goslings due to hatch any day. Stop the madness!!!
