I have carefully selected my foundation, some are pure, some are not, some are ducks, some are not

But one thing I can say is I am choosing healthy ~ AND ~ My standard that I want NOT the standard someone else is telling me...

I am creating my Rivers Edge Standards NOT someone elses. What I may find desirable, may not be what someone does BUT that does not mean it is poor quality, or backyard bred ~ if someone doesn't like what I am breeding, then DUH don't buy my eggs, or birds. I have always thought for myself, whether people agree with me or not. I am not a follower & I am not a "keep up with the Jones" either..

I don't think anyone is going to argue your free thinking capabilities.

I think that if one honestly represents their stock, and its true quality and background, there would be no need for our threads, where we not only seek hatching comfort and advice, but compare notes on egg sellers. However, a great many folks seem to always believe they've bought the best quality stock, but got a deal. It is difficult for the ametuer to adequately train themselves to recognize the standards they are truly looking for, and it is time consuming.

I'm happy that in most cases, eggs I purchase have been adequatley represented, or I am satisfied to merely have the specifmens. I am no duck show lady. I've never shown a bird in my whole life, I'm an egg lady. Thats my passion in ducks. They are cute, but they'd better lay me some eggs. If I were looking for show quality, I'd do as I see others doing; asking questioins, doing my homework, checking resources.

Everyone here is a wealth of information withen their niche, and I thank you for your presence here.
