hello I am a newbie duck mama and was delighted to find this forum. I got 2 Rouens boys and 2 K Campbells (boy and girl) and they are all about 5 months old.
I am also raising a Starling name Birdie, who I found 3 months ago as a featherless just hatched baby.
The rest of the family is 2 dogs 2 cats and...a husband!
I am looking forward to being part of the Forum!!

and

from Ohio. So glad you joined. You are going to need some more female ducks by next spring when breeding season comes or your lone female will get way to much attention.

They say the starlings can mimic humans.. had you had any of this from it?

Thank you everybody for the warm welcome.
We actually have about 20 chickens of all kinds of different heritage breeds and 4 broad breasted baby turkeys, 2 heritage turkeys and 4 more ducks, that we share with our landlady. we care for them too, but they are not as much "pets" as my ducks!!
Birdie the Starling is only 4 months old, and she is already making lotsa fun sounds, but she is not talking yet....yes you can find videos of talikng starlings on youtube..pretty cool!
As far as girlfriends for my Rouen boys, YES I do ned to get some! I was thinking to just get some grown females next spring, as I do not know if I can keep 6 ducks inside this winter!!!

4 is plenty for now!
