Looking for a Rouen Drake

Earlier this week I asked if my duckies would fly south, but now I only have one duck. Lewie was ran down by an automobile yesterday afternoon. We don't get much traffic out here, but some of the kids who live down the road drive like idiots (the way I used to drive when I was 17). My birds usually stay out of the road, however they combined the corn next to my house and the road has a lot of corn and debris on it right now.
Lewie was a very good duck! She laid me an egg almost every morning. Dewie, my last duck just started laying this week. Yesterdays egg was in the bottom of the duckie pool, but didn't have a hard shell. Todays egg was small but she laid it in the nest with the chicken eggs.
Anyway, I've been reading a lot about poultry and since duckies are social creatures I thought it might be best if I found Dewie a friend. I thought a rouen drake would make a nice edition to the farm and a nice friend for Dewie.
Does anyone know where I can find a rouen, maybe two or three at the most. Prefer them to be less than a year old. I'd be willing to drive about 100 miles or so to get them. I live in southern Indiana.
Thanks,
Nick .
