    The Quack Shack

    All my drakes, so far, have been eggcellent dads! Even the Monty Phyton's have been nice and careful to every duckling that had hatched under a Momma Duck. - Ducklings from somewhere else, even from the CCI, are another story…

    It may take a couple of days for a duck to fully commit to go through with that duckling thing, so don't give up yet. Even into the incubation process momma ducks take their time off the nest to poop, eat, drink, drake and just hang out with the others, then suddenly run back to their nest...

    :gig Congratulations! The DUX has awoken in your place too. Try to get to the eggs under the broody duck - no don't!

    The Quack Shack

    I gave it another shot yesterday, loade my car with plants and went to the parking-lot flee-market: Surprisingly i had a lot of competition. The other's had larger tomato-plants but my prices were lower, i can let go a tomato six-pack for $3 when the other's ask $6 for tall plants. Hint: The...
