We Actually Got Our Ducks In A Row! (Homestead Life)

At our homestead we sell and use duck eggs and therefore have laying ducks. Duck eggs have a different consistency than a chicken egg and are often preferred for use in baking. Ducks eat both plants and insects and are great for reducing snail populations which is why we let them run loose around the orchard and garden areas. Once the garden becomes active for the season, we will keep the ducks out of that area.
