A couple weeks ago we adopted Lulu. She missed the turkey shipping truck at a friends house so we thought Tom our male would like a friend. He seems more then happy with our pick!
We have two kinds of ducks. One white ugly ones called Muscovy ducks I'm not sure what the official name of our other ones but they look just like mallards. Last spring we started with 8 babies now sadly we're down to 2. I've been hoping that these ones would sit and have ducklings but they don't have the hang of it. One of our other Muscovy just hatched out 7 babies today though. She's been sitting for what seems to be forever. Tonight we went out to discover the little yellow babies. They kids are so excited. Now the hard part is keeping the raccoons away from them. We put them in a large cage tonight - hopefully that works.
We leave tomorrow for the weekend so it's up to Grandpa to hold the fort while we're gone.
Have a good weekend,
Michelle
