Thank you VERY much for your long response lol!! We travel a lot (yes we are headed to Australia from Canada, and then hopping on a cruise :) sooo, the girl that looks after our house and used to look after my cat (cat died recently) she is a total animal person and I told her that I would buy her all if she wanted to raise ducks :) Thank you again for your posts! I would have never have known nor tried duck eggs if it wasn't for you ! Now I"m hooked!
