W A N T E D : Runner ducks
« on: January 08, 2014, 11:59:03 am »
Not for me but for someone near to me - preferably near or in Scottish Borders - they live Lauder which is 30mins south-east of Edinburgh.


Many thanks.

I have friends near Broxburn with a spare IR drake - they didn't realise that 2 drakes and one duck was a no-no, so they are looking for more females too - but not just runners - they'll take any breed.   Let me kn ow if anyone has any and I'll pass on details
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age

Daisy's mum did have some, I was going to get a couple for my little boy then my step dad built us a beautiful duck house with a very low door, so we had to get call ducks instead!  Not sure if she has any left, but I'm sure she'll see this and let you know.

I think birdtrader had hatching eggs if that was any good.

Thanks all, I know Anne (Daisys Mum), she's not selling any more just now and I've offered the people to do some hatching eggs for them in the spring, just wondering if anyone had any actual living specimens for sale at the moment, many thanks.
