Ducks for sale
« on: July 27, 2011, 09:33:53 pm »
Hi,
We are taking our 5 ducks plus 1 drake to Selby auction sale on Saturday, so just thought I would see if anyone here was interested in buying them before we take them.
They are 18months old, the Drake is unrelated to the ducks, there are 3 White Campbell, 1 Khaki Campbell and 1 is supposed to be a Khaki Campbell but I'm not too sure although she is a pretty thing.  They are quite timid, they have a large run and are very content there, we get between 3-4 eggs a day (sometimes 5) But just lately one egg is soft.  We feed them layer pellets and greens from the garden and they always have a pile of grit.

We thought 50pounds for them all was a fair price

We live near Selby.

We are swopping our ducks for 6 welsummer chickens tomorrow, OH got talking to a smallholder in the barbers and he just happened to want some ducks for eggs and OH asked if he wanted to swop !
So they are going to a good home and we are getting some chooks ! ;D
