New member!

[BuckDucks]

We've just finally joined, after reading this site for about 2 years! Just got 6 runner ducks a week ago tomorrow. They looked a little bigger than 1 day old, but maybe they're just a lot bigger than chicks!
2 black, 3 fawn and 1 white.
We are inundated with slugs and pill bugs it's almost not worth gardening.
Now, looks like I have mulch to last me a life time and the can't wait to train them in the garden!
Looking forward to all the tips and tricks I'll learn from you all!
Jaime

Welcome!

As you have already received links to some good starting points, I will just wish you all the best.

I hope you enjoy being a BYC member. There are lots of friendly and very helpful folks here so not only is it overflowing with useful information it is also a great place to make friends and have some fun.

If you would like to share pictures and stories of your flock, you have come to the right place. BYC’ers never tire of these and do not back away slowly or commence eye rolling when the photo album or home videos come out
