A large range of colours and breeds, including khaki campbell, Pekin (pure white ducks with blue eyes ie Jemima Puddleduck), Saxony, runner x, silveryard and more.
These ducks are domestic which means they cannot fly and cannot be released. They need forever homes and will live up to around 10 years of age.
They need a secure predator proof run or area to roam in (if you have a dog they need to be housed somewhere separate from your dog or your dog needs to be fenced securely at all times if they are free ranging). They also need to be fed daily and provided with fresh clean water every day to drink and swim in (a clamshell pool is fine).
And just like your cat or dog, they need to be taken to the vet if sick or injured.
Advice on ducks and duck keeping available and if necessary ducklings can be held for a week or two if you need tine to set up a suitable living space for them.
You will need to provide photo ID and sign an adoption agreement and provide sone photos of the area you intend to keep the ducks in as part of the adoption process.
Ducks are available to adopt as pets only, not for eating, and you must bring suitable cages or boxes to take them home in. No sacks!
Questions welcome, please contact via text as I won’t be online over the weekend.

Here's Tuesday's teaser!
I’m found in socks, scarves, and mittens; and often in the paws of playful kittens. What am I?
