Lucky!! I cant beleive you ended up with hookbills!! They are beautiful!! So do you think the farmer knew or do you think he thought he was giving you barnyard mixes??

Neither can I tbh! We were going to look for eggs and incubate them but he went to this close by farm and sat in a chick brooder with about 50 chicks was my 2 babies! My partner offered double so he sold but not after taking a few mins to look at the beak. Tbh I’m not sure if he new what they were or I don’t no were he got them but he incubated them. A lot of people on here are from the us me were from the uk ducks as pets ain’t so common haha I can’t wait now till fully grown to see if they are and as to the sex aswell!
