Wonderful. I've found a place about 5 miles from me on the way to work. They have Muscovies. I plan to stop and introduce myself, and see about buying some eggs. May get the coolerbator started this weekend. It will be the KISS model. If I were to get some Musc. eggs from them, and set them to mature with my chicken eggs (4/14 - 16 hatch date), I'd need to be setting them this weekend. That's a long incubation! Also going to look up some duck eggs from health food store, just for the fun of it.
