Someone needs to stop me!

I'm actually in an intensive property search right now solely for the reason that I NEED MORE DUCKIES! Oh yeah, and I want to raise geese, goats, and a cow as well. I just simply don't have the room right now for anything other than the ducks. I wanted this batch for genetic diversity to breed with the batch I got earlier this year.

The ones I got from lovesduckies are laying eggs now so we're just going to have to wait until this batch comes of age to have babies themselves. Oh and Heather, if you come across this post, your babies turned out lovely! Unfortunately all my baby and teenager pics got lost in a laptop crash, but when I have some nice weather I'll go out and take some pics so you can see how Skully and Koko (the boys) and Buckie, Paloma, and Pinkie (the girls) turned out. 4 out of the 6 were girls (but we lost one to a cat attack sadly).

I only have one male not related to them but he is not a good specimen for breeding. I don't like doing the in line breeding if I can help it, so we all have to wait till May to start thinking about the next generation! DesertDarlene, I'll make sure to drop you a note when babies are on the way!

OMG i would love to see them!!! have you seen any of the pictures of the one i kept? she is beautiful so i'm sure the ones you have are beautiful too. she's really friendly lol she was laying eggs too but doesn't have a mate. she has 3 mallard girlfriends with her lol.

Thanks! I am not ready for ducks yet, but I want to keep a mental list of who has muscovies within driving distance of my home in case I want some. It could be years away, but who knows?

idk how far you wana drive but i have scovies too!!!!!! i am hoping for an incubator for christmas since my hen hasn't had and successful hatches since RavenStorm bought them from me. my poor baby.
 
I will be no help either. My ducklings are practically grown now, and I have to say that they are the nastiest, grossest critters I have ever taken care of; how can anything poop so much? I am so disgusted that I cannot wait to have more! There is nothing cuter than fuzzy ducklings following you around in the yard. And that head tilt when an airplane or bird flies over just melts me. I thought duck people were crazy til I got ducks. Either I was wrong or I am crazy too!

I used to have ducks. Two little yellow ones that lazily sat in the middle of our footpath doing nothing. They weren't very cute, I have to say my chickens are cuter, but they were lovely all the same!

They mostly ignore anything that flies over. I'm usually the ones that looks.

Third Step: Make a list of all friends and family we have harmed with our duck obsession, and show them cute pics of our babies and saying "See? Could you resist?" as a way of making amends.
