These ducks are so much fun. I can watch them like duck TV. I got them from Heartland Hathcery who had chick days at Valley Feed and Seed in Bonner. Great food, great ducks. They were born March 1 and now they are over 10 pounds, all of them. Bonner has the best feed in town, by a long long margin.
They have been teaching me how to grow grain in my backyard. I live on 0.19 acres, less than a quarter of an acre, and I produce thousands and thousands of pounds from my food each year. These ducks have DOUBLED the productivity of all the other crops. They eat bugs, they mow the grass, they play in the pond seven times a day, they catch their own frogs and fish, and they poop a lot, and it can be used fresh, like rabbit manure. And if you are a gardener, you know how great that is.
Hat tip to Valley feed and seed and Heartland hatchery for upgrading my farm in so many ways. The goat is next, don't tell the hubby.
