YOUR EATING HABITS

[Duchess]

Duck eggs are a baker's delight.   I  have a ¹⁄₂ dz female pekins that  pay for themselves,  and the dogs that guard them.

I've had Pekins in the past. Manny was killed by a hit & run because I couldn't keep him out of the road, he was crossing to get to the stream on the other side when all he had to do was follow the stream under the road FFS. A fox got another one and before that I think it was an owl that got 2 of them. I got netting after that. Now I have a rouen and a female mallard (they were in the clearance bin & I felt sorry for them) and I recently gave a home to 2 small wood ducks. They had never been on grass before! Gawd! I haven't had any deaths in quite awhile now. It's been a little difficult to keep them heavily protected while still letting them have space to be a duck. I've gotten much better at it though.
