Hi Ron,

Where abouts on the Island are you ? I'm nr Almwch and have ducks if I can be of any help just shout :)

Basic needs are a secure pen, and house, feed in the form of layers pellets or if possible duck breeder pellets, (not so easy to get hold of round here :( Sometimes have them at the Farm & Pet place :) ) a handful of mixed corn in the evening and water a small paddling pool is ok but water dishes need to be deep enough for them to get their heads right in so they can keep eyes and nostrils clean :)


Sarah :)

Thanks Sarah, I live in Dwyran, they havn't been delivered yet and I do have a house for them that needs some TLC so I will have to keep them in my pollytunnel over night, I am sure I will be getting back to you soon. Thanks Ron.
