The next set of ducks have now grown up enough to merge with the big ducks. Some of these won’t stay with us, in fact six of these cuties have already been rehomed. The duck area is really only big enough for about fifteen to twenty ducks.
But the kids are expanding the pond this weekend and expanding the pen. All is right with our little duck world.

Well, I need to be enlightened about ducks. Do you raise them as you would chickens? I’m clueless.

It looks like you have quite a variety of colors in your fine duck flock. Ducks are such a funny friendly animal. We often had ducks on our farm. Dad would win ducklings at the fair. They cleaned our garden of bugs and slugs and swam in the canal.

That is a bunch of ducks. The most we ever had was 4. Which was plenty for us. I think I see 3 maybe 4 khaki Campbells (the light brown ones.) in that gaggle. They will lay the most eggs. You’ll want to keep them, if they are girls.

That is a super tree house! The ducks look happy and don’t seem to mind there are too many, but I guess they would make quite a mess. Pretty neat how you trained them to stick together so you could get them all in the photo. 🙂

I love the ducks 🙂 It’s great that they have a pond of their own.
A raccoon stole an egg from my duck nest two nights in a row and distrurbed my Mama duck. Looks like she’s given up and I’ll get no babies this time. I’m so bummed 😦

Wonderful duck family! I love that tree house. It is huge. How neat that they all stay up there. I am not sure I would have done that as a young mom. Maybe with a mattress (o:

That is a happy looking family of ducks!! We have some chickens that are approaching the age of integration with the flock. I worry. But it does not seem like ducks could do as much damage to the littler ducks as chickens can do to the little ones with their pointy beaks. But I am probably wrong…
