Welcome to the forum Polished Arrow - as BB's other half and the duck person - we don't get that many eggs as not all of them lay in there boxes - if I take too many away they get craft and start a nest where I can't find it and for some reason ours seem to love sitting and having ducklings so we take some at the beginning of laying and then when they have a nest I let them sit. In the past if I've taken them away they've gone off further way to sit where I struggle to find them - suddenly only the male will return at bedtime and I have to go out hunting the verge/field edge for the duck!! The eggs are on the small size but very tasty, lots of yoke and a smaller amount of white. I sell about 30 ducklings a year and sell them at about 12 weeks of age when they are old enough to tell boys from girls.

Hi Tizaala,

Yes, we will indeedy be in touch as we haven't actually looked for/found someone with a billy to borrow as yet :-)  Have you some photos of him, does he have a name, and is he a well experienced gigolo goat, able to take good care of our little ladies?  It'd be their first experience of this kind 

Here's a picture of our three: 



They are shamelessly vein I am afraid, but full of fun too.  Here's Cocoa illustrating her skills at picking her nose with her own tongue 



Good to 'meet' you, too Bruckley the Egg Hunter
