I just bought 30 assorted breeds of chick's and 6 pekin ducklings. I'll have alot of questions im sure. Right now I think I'm allergic to the ducks. Every time I pet them I sneeze uncontrollably, nose runs, eyes tear. It's awful and getting worse. Any suggestions?

Hello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
Maybe you should reconsider the ducks. You're going to have your hands full with 30 chicks. Do you have a coop and run for all of them?

Hello, and welcome! If you are allergic to the duck's, it might be better to re-home them. There's no sense in making yourself sick. Good luck with the chick's!

Yes, we have a large chicken house and a 50'x50' chicken yard for the chickens. We will be building a duck house and pen for the ducks as well. Right now they're in a coup.

Hello and welcome to BYC, You found an Amazing Poultry Community to be a part of with many great knowledgeable members who are more then willing to jump in and help you along your journey with any questions you may have.

I have to agree with @DobieLover Having ducks and properly caring for them at the same time with all your chickens, can be a full time job just by it's self. Do you have any prior experience with poultry?
