    Duck in a Truck

    My duck and husband on a road trip (back home from the vet) stopped at the local BP station. Nel had many fans gathering around the truck and inside the store just to take a gander.

    Ready! Hurry up and open that door.

    Every morning my Pekin ducks are so excited to see me coming to open their door. 2 of the females attempt to start flying and start jumping and crashing into the window. It ends of taking me longer to unlock b/c I get nervous that they are going to hurt themselves. Is this normal?

    Top Treats My Ducks Won't Eat

    My Pekin ducks want nothing to do with peas. I can't believe this! Just made some pasta each piece cut into 4 tiny squares, more than I have made for any human this week. I couldn't wait to see how excited they would get, but they literally each one turned their backs on me!

    Rooster is waiting for snow to melt

    My rooster hasn't come out of the coop since Friday. He just pokes his head out, takes a gander, and stays inside with his hen. I cleared an area outside of coop, but not until I brought lots of earthworms would he even consider venturing outside. Normal?
