Ducks?
I'm thinking of getting half a dozen ducks.
#1 -- It would be cool (to a geek like me) #2 -- I'm imagining that they'll help keep the bug and slug population down in my yard/garden. Has anyone here done this? Do they eat seedlings and other stuff you'd rather keep in the garden? Is this, for some reason, a phenomenally bad idea? I have a plot of raised beds in my backyard that can easily be fenced in, thanks to the neighbors on two sides who have chainlink fences bordering my yard. I'm thinking of chicken wire, a kiddie pool for them to splash around in, and a ramp up into my garden shed so they have shelter when necessary. I spilled the beans to my kids already, so they're running around the house "naming" the ducks we don't even have yet. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks, Mark P.S. Gary...My second year of growing garlic is upon me. Year #1 was a smashing success. Thanks for your help. |
