HELP!!! Where to buy ducks? (cheap shipping!!!)

[Pekin duck mom]

Ideal Poultry in TX is close to you and they sell fawn runner ducks.

Oh ok!!! I'll look!

Oh thats funny!! I guess you'd pay the same even if you bought a bunch!

Yeah - ahahahaha! Gotta make their money, I guess. If I weren't so particular about breeds, I would probably look at local feed stores. I am new to the area, so I am not even sure where to go. I am getting more chickens soon, too, but I won't have chicks shipped anymore (bad experience).

What's even funnier is that the main reason I ordered from Metzer was because they are only 3 hours away, and I would be able to pick them up myself. But they aren't doing pick up orders because of COVID. Joke's on me X2!

Depends on where you are in TX and where Ideal is in TX. That is a seriously big state! Haha!

I guess it would be difficult to try to make their ducks wear masks!!!

That's hilarious! This IS California, after all! We are on house arrest... er... I mean we are following Stay-at-Home orders.

Even out here, we get the, "Oh - we'll fly out and we can drive to Los Angeles on Saturday and maybe go to Disneyland."

I'm like, LA is a 7 hour drive south, so....

Yeah! When you live in such a huge state, it has everything! You don't even need to leave state to go on an 8 hour road trip! the only time we ever leave is to go see snow up north!(Missouri) besides that, going out of state is pretty rare!

We Texans are supposedly cowboys. Riding around on our horses with our lassos catching bandits! yeah...NOT EVEN CLOSE!!

 

[Pekin duck mom]

Yeah...that one is out! $70 for 2 ducks?!?!? I don't think so!!! I could get them at the feed store for like... $5 a piece!!
