This Is one I got from a breeder. She came straight of a farm and had never been handled at all. I was amazed at how quickly she has become comfortable with the pen, training and being handled. Her sister is still very skittish and will never suit the show pen - which is a pity as I would love to know which duck a judge would see as the better bird. The drake that won first place in his class was one that I hatched though.

I arrived at the venue a little late and only had time to put the ducks straight into the pens- Others were finishing off spraying birds and wiping over their feet and faces - obviously these birds were kept purely for show- where mine are pets first and are free to roam the yard during the day rather than caged to keep them looking their best.... All mine had had was a good bath the night before. I sure hope with a little more preparation in the future my birds will hold their own in some of the bigger state or national shows.
 
Hi there, congratulations what a wonderful achievement. Havnt been on here for a while as I have been very busy but keen to see how your ducklings are going, you probably have got pics up but it takes me a while to work out where everything is so I will keep looking.
