Dabbling in Ducks:
Private One-on-One
Training 🦆💦
Unlock the joy of ducks! From giant eggs to the best garden pest control, learn how to raise the hardiest birds on the homestead.
Ducks are incredible producers and famously cold-hardy, but they definitely have a "splashy" way of doing things! If you’ve been warned that ducks are "too messy," let me show you the Everything Homemade way to manage them with ease. Join me at Queen Worm Farm for a Private One-on-One Training Session where we dive into the world of domestic waterfowl.
