I guess I should apologize for taking such a long time to post anything. I can't use the excuse that the holiday season has kept me so busy since it's been over for a month now. There's a lot to catch everyone up on. To save confusion I will use separate posts.
The Fuzzy Invaders
About the same time I last posted I bought half a dozen pullets to aid in egg production this spring, along with them I purchased some pekin ducklings. So far the pekins have been my favorite of the ducks but I plan to get some rouens this spring. This is them at a few weeks old.
This is them today. Well, some of them at least. The little duck in the middle isn't new. All the little leghorn chicks will be in a stew later. Sorry, that's what happens when you order birds online and they add "chicks for warmth". I don't need that many males.
Go ahead and save this pic for future Easter pics. Yes, I took it. Yes, the baby was on me snoozing away. I'm starting to wonder if the ducks are here for eggs and entertainment.
We had some furry invaders too. We went out to feed animals one morning and these four were in our back yard just hanging out so we did what anyone in our situation would do.
We brought them carrots. I love living out here!
