You have found a wonderful group of folks who either live in Oklahoma or wish they lived in Oklahoma.
Disclaimer: Some of us are addicted to hatching eggs, attending poultry auctions and otherwise acquiring poultry. Since addicts tend to be enablers, we may try and enable you into owning more poultry than you ever thought you might want to raise.
So, what kind of ducks do you have and would you like to acquire additional varieties? Do you have any poultry other than ducks?
Also, although I feed egg layer crumbles to my ducks that aren't laying eggs - I sometimes up their protein level by feeding Purina game bird grower feed. You can also up the protein level by adding small pellets of alfalfa to the feed. Mine love corn, but I don't feed it to the exclusion of other feeds since it doesn't have enough protein.
I've got 6 ducks - 2 welsh harlequins, 1 pekin, 1 buff, 1 black swedish & 1 cayuga
and 7 chickens - buff orpington, rhode island red, speckled sussex, bared rock, partrich rock, new hampshire red, & a australorp
This is my first time doing this, but, I've got 10 acres & a quarter acre pond , so... there's room to grow hahaha
Welcome! 10 acres is my dream. Oh the critters I'd have.
