My new Ducks from Metzer Farms

[Chickengirl2671]

Back in late March I ordered my first ducks ever,
1 Black Swedish hen
1 Khaki Campbell hen
1 Welsh Harlequin hen
1 Welsh Harlequin drake
They should ship on May 2nd and I will post updates and photos on here to satisfy the need for baby floofballs. I can't wait! I have Everything I need ready, brooder bin, heat lamp, fresh bulb, waterer, chick starter grower, nutritional yeast, and probably a bunch of other stuff that I don't need but got anyways. Now all I need is the ducklings.

Metzer is about to open their Memphis location so hopefully yours will ship from here instead . I would not recommend getting ducklings from tractor supply because they buy from a hatchery that sells sexed ducklings. As a result, I think it is more likely that the Khakis and Welsh Harlequins and other egg laying types that are left over and sent to Tractor Supply are more likely to be drakes. So, unless you want lots of drakes, I would be cautious.
