Question for the green thumbs on here. I am trying to use mostly heirloom seeds for my garden this year. What is a good place to get seeds? Have you seen any one who sells started heirloom veggies?

There is also a Seed/Plant Swap chain on BYC. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/755856/2013-seed-plant-gardening-swap/330#post_10846219

So... How is the best way to get ducks friendly?? I have 4 ducklings ATM that are just starting to feather out.. And I want them to love me unlike my other ducks that only like me when I have feed. -.- Lol.

Handle them, play with them, talk to them, pick them up...constantly...even if they protest. Eventually they get used to it.

This is the best price I have found so far and I had plenty left over.

My wee one was sick last week, now the 7yr old soon to be 8 as in on the 12th had her appendix taken out in the wee hours on Monday and than had complications. She is out and with me. 

Oh no! Hope she is feeling better. It is rough watching your little ones go through surgery.
