I can't persuade my dad to let me get anymore because I have 1 duck and she has 5 little baby chickens but let's face it..she needs a ducky friend!! I wasn't supposed to have her but she hatched out of an egg all by herself.I've already got it ALLLLLL picked out and have them here next week.

My mom's kinda anti duck to but I've picked out quite the variety already. My girl I've got right now will be laying in the spring(what I was told),and she's a 7 week old Rouen duck.
Here's my duckie wonderland.
1 blue swedish pullet
1 blue swedish male
1 rouen duck pullet
1 rouen duck male
1 khaki cambell pullet
& 1 cayuga duck pullet.

There's 2 males just incase something happens to one of them. I mean I've got 6 ducks picked out and it meets the price of $25.00 so someone please tell me that I don't want these ducks and I need to get my mind off of it..I seriously need help here haha

Boy, have you come to the wrong place to be told NOT to get duckies! We are a bunch of enablers here!
I'm sorry I can't help you, but I have been bugging the stuffing out of duckluck by continuously telling her that I'M READY TO HATCH DUCKLINGS NOW!!!!
I hate to tell you this, but I think you may need to be referred to Duckaholics Anonymous...if it works, maybe you can come back and help me out with my need for a duckling fix.

Wayyy too many drakes (males). Disaster waiting to happen....

You should have 1 Drake to every 3-9 Females.

Good Luck with them! We are enablers

ETA: Never mind....2 drakes to 5 ducks isn't that bad. I misread that

I'd be looking for ways to casually put duckling videos in front of the parents. I imagine they might melt soon enough.

Remember, though - to gain support (I speak from experience), keeping the ducky area relatively clean goes a long, long way! And doing extra chores doesn't hurt, either.

After a while, ducks in my home seem to win people over. The eggs help, too.

(Just learned how to make custard. Wow.)
