.
Getting ready for my first duck show. I decided to enter 7 , 5 runners , 4 under a year, and one 2 yr. old drake.And one pair of Saxony. I have 3 carriers, after searching thrift stores in 3 towns . I finally had to rig a divider in my largest for 2 pr. of runners, to keep the boys from nibbling on each other, even if they were raised together, ti's breeding season.
I finally bought a large ,tall ventilated laundry basket for the one lone runner drake and I will tie it closed. It is big enough for him to stand and wide enough to lay in.
I also am bringing 4 mini-ducks to sell, But they aren't in attack mode yet , so they can stay together in a mid-size crate. I also bought "interesting" heavy glassware as waters at the thrift store. I figure they are too heavy to spill, and needed deep enough to dip their bills in to clear their nostrils.
I will have to bring them inside to the spare bath and try to give them baths.....then put them in their carriers on fresh shavings.7 ducks, (3 pairs), that is 4 baths! Then I have to wrap them in a towel to get them past the 3 terriers
It's the pedicure that may be tough
