Kristine Ellis received her first duck as a birthday gift when she turned five years old. In her freshman year of high school, she joined a local 4-H poultry club where her love of ducks flourished. In 2017, she purchased her first miniature duck from a member of the club. That duck, Munchkin, became the star of Dunkin Ducks the next year! The Dunkin Ducks Instagram page was initially created to connect with others who raise ducks and share duck pictures for fun. To this day, education and community remain important parts of all Dunkin Ducks pages, where millions of followers subscribe to follow along. Dunkin Ducks has been featured in dozens of media outlets including the New York Post, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and Boston Globe. Krissy also remains involved in 4-H, where she now teaches kids about raising poultry.
