The domestics ducks are raised and hopefully, I will find a farm or home for them. I have had several domestics as pets but do not have any ducks at the moment. I should start getting Woodies in late March or April. When I get them they are usually about 24 hours old and 2 inches long and 1 inch wide. Many times their Mom was hit by a car or they have been seperated and since Wood duck females do not quack, people think that Mom has left and then the well meaning people, scoop them up, take them home and call for rehab. We live on a lake, so, they don't go very far from home. In winter, they migrate about 3 miles and then will return to the lake, in the spring Kim Here is one of the male Woodies |
