Adak has hurt her leg. She was limping this weekend pretty badly. Yesterday she sat and one of th eother ducks would hang with her and keep her company. She moved around the yard during the day, but basically sat for quite a while in one spot with the others coming to take turns with her. Today, she sat on her own. Now and then, the other's would hang with her. But she was more mobile with them today - limping.
Tomorrow (because it will cause way more stress than it is worth for both of us to catch her today), I am going to fence her in to a small area near the house (maybe a 10x15 area).
The easiest way to do this is to lure them all with peas to the area I want her in and close the fencing behind me. Do I leave a buddy behind with her and pen up 2 of them or just her? It shoudl be raining tomorrow afternoon, so she will be missing the rain fun in the yard.
