Good thread! I love reading about everyone's plans! I'm going to add 2-4 ducks this year. I don't really want to start with ducklings but it does have it's pros, like they will be better bonded and more easily trained - and since my ducks are just pets that give me breakfast, the bonding and training part is important to me. I regularly look through the rehome section on BYC and CL to see if anyone is rehoming pet older ducks thinking maybe I'll come across some that are already trained. So far no luck... Which means I'm now trying to decide where I'm going to order from - it will either be Anconas from a BYC member or other sexed breeds from Metzer... I'm probably over-thinking it - very different from my first duck purchase. My first 2 babies were a complete impulse buy from TSC but I haven't regretted it one bit! Can't wait to see pics of everyone's new additions this year!
