This will be my third year keeping Ancona Ducks.
Currently, I have 3 hens and 1 drake. I am hatching and will keep 16 (total) this year woo!
I believe my drake carries the chocolate gene and one of my hens is silver. One of my black hens lays light blue eggs, the other two lay white.
My ducks hang out with me in the garden and take care of all my pests!!! They are silly and adorable and they make me smile. I love the sound their feet make when they hit the pavement.
I enjoy gardening, indoor and outdoor plants. Cooking and baking as well as making art and reading.
I often find myself on BYC when googling something or other about the ducks, I finally made an account because I am thinking about selling hatching eggs/ducklings and have been struggling with pricing! Such a large gap between local (wny) barnyard mix prices and online Ancona sales.
