On the Prowl for Aylesbury Hatching Eggs

[megsjo]

I’m looking to branch out from laying ducks to meat ducks and I have my heart set on Aylesbury. Does anyone know where in this world, hopefully in the U.S., that I can find a few? I’ve searched all over online, I’ve asked around at feed stores and auctions, but I always just end up with people giving me funny looks. And here I thought it was hard to get my hands on Anconas! Can anyone help me find them, if they even exist? I’m starting to think they may be a myth.

They're a British duck. Where are you? Omelet has them but I think it's pick up only & I'm pretty sure they're British too. Can you import? Someone in Devon also has them but they are listed as critical. I can get them in Australia too.

Try Stromberg’s hatchery.

Thanks ya’ll! I found a breeder in Indiana but apparently they just decided to sell all their aylesbury stock last year, and stromberg’s doesn’t carry them anymore. I don’t know if I can take the step to attempt to import, that sounds difficult. I may have to wait and see if a few show up at an auction one day.

Where are you located? I know of another breeder in MN.
