Thank you! I'll most likely start a new thread once I'm ready for eggs. This one went sideways in a hurry. Want me to tag you to the new one?

Please tag me! wanting to follow the adventure (and see photos)

I'm getting ducks for the first time this year myself, though I'm not hatching them. Got some coming from Meyer in April. Welsh Harlequins.

Very nice. Mine are coming in April too. Cackle Hatchery ducklings. Cayuga, Ancona, Pekin, and Swedish Blue. I’m very excited! Only 43 days to go

I almost went for Cayugas, but I liked that Welsh Harlequins are autosexing and also supposedly pretty quiet WE SHALL SEE

They are actually quiet! I had one a couple years back and she was very shy, definitely not as out going and quackative as the others.

I love lionheads!
Do you breed them?

No, I don't but my cousin does (14 bunnies are his and 2 are mine. He just gave me them to play for about a week.) . Right now I put my female with one of his males. So, I might get some baby bunnies. Actually, I got my cousin into rabbits.
