I may look like it, but I am NOT your average girl next door
While getting ready to head out this week I found our herd of ducks doing my Pre-trip Inspection for me! Really, I think they were more enamored with the “shiny” objects, but it sure looked like they were checking Rosie over before I headed out! Safety first!
The ducks are learning that if they come to the house they get fed good food. Last weekend we had fresh corn on the cob. I shucked the corn off the deck. Within minutes the ducks were interested in what I was doing. Not too long after that, we had Rollie Fingers in our back [...]
Meet Ugly Betty. She’s not really ugly, but every year- sometimes twice a year she goes broody. And then she gets ugly. Not mean ugly. Actually I don’t think she has a mean bone in her body. She does though, puff up like a turkey and shriek at us when she knows we are going [...]
I hope I don’t burn you guys out on duck pictures! I’m somewhat in love with these guys this year! I have to start with the feet… I’ll work my way up. I can’t help it, they are just so dang cute! Hubs ran the water hose for the ducks on Friday. When I came [...]
I broke my camera a little over a week ago… I had sent it into Canon and got it back on Monday, and even after admitting I did the breaking, they charged me nothing… And now that it’s back, all is right with the world, so I’ve been giving it a work out today! The [...]
Last night we got the swimming pool ready for the ducks. Since the pool is quite high compared to the ducks themselves, Hubs and I built a wooden ramp, and had the pool next to the concrete steps of the barn. It took them about 5 minutes of looking at the water and listening, as [...]
I thought I would share this little story with you. It left hubs and I shaking our heads and saying “animals are so smart…” which we already knew, but the ducks just verified it for us! Last Saturday was a rainy day. We hung out at the house for a good part of the day, [...]
It’s been 13 days since I brought 9 babies home. I’ve been gone 6 days. The ducklings have grown tremendously in that time! If you watched the ducks in a cake-pan video you were able to see them in action. This morning I’m home and I again have the cake pan in the tub with [...]
Ducks in a Cake-pan….. Last night was the ducks first time in water and they loved it! This is kind of long, but I hated to cut it short, they were having way too much fun, and so were we!
I’m home for a few days. Yesterday I made my rounds. Dropped off paperwork, visited with dispatch, went to see my horse, got my eyes checked, oh and I stopped off at the farm store and came home with babies… 9 of them to be exact. Ducklings to be even more exact. The thing is, [...]
