1) Exactly how much bigger are east indies than calls? I'm asking because my cage is fairly small and I want to make sure they would...
Hello!
My one year old duck has been laying fertilized eggs everyday now since Christmas. I REEEEEALLLLY want to try to hatch them, but don't have room for more ducks in my life at this moment.
