Who can tell me about Runner Ducks? My wife is thinking about getting runner ducks to help her "garden" next year. My only experience with ducks is migratory and me in my waders...
Seriously though, although we have a bunch of poultry, treat me a newbie to give me Runner Duck 101. Housing, feed, husbandry, incubation temps, drake to hen ratio, special considerations...you get the idea.
Quick backdrop setup...looking a getting a quad, if ratio is good, they will not be free ranging, they'll be in a penned area (already familiar with FT Knox type runs)...other than that open canvas, will build to suit as they say.
Thanks in advance for all the comments.
