Sorry to duplicate , thought the first one disappeared.Hi, I live north of you in Lincolnton NC. I have 7 ducks on a 5 acre lake with no public access . My ducks play and swim all day and are penned in a secure shelter at night. I'm home all the time since retired. Mine are strictly pets ,I do eat and pickle the eggs. You are welcome to check us out anytime. Would love to give your girls a safe home.
