In the Brooder

Hi!
I am Aleta, I recently got back into poultry and farm animals. I have 2 black Showgirl Silkie hens about 6 months old, and 6 chicks in my brooder right now (4 EE, 1 Golden Star, 1 Barred Rock). I have 3 goats, 1 Oberhasli and 2 Nigerian Dwarf does. Also have 5 cats (2 hairless) and a leopard gecko.
I am here to learn all I can!
I am looking to expand my little flock of chickens and add some rare breed and endangered breed ducks. I am looking for Turken/ Naked neck, Showgirl, Silkie, Polish, Frizzle, etc at the moment. Ship Hatching eggs/ chicks or older if available in the Orlando, FL area.
Also looking for ducks, Dutch Hookbill, Ancona, Saxony, Cayuga, Blue Swedish or other rare or endangered breeds good for a beginner with ducks.

Anybody have any leads or advice?

Thanks!
Aleta
