My Mum saw 2 ducklings for sale yesterday and she asked about them and we'll today we went to get them eeee
There is an Indian runner which we have called roady like road runner and a silver appleyard which we have called Blossom (I don't know their gender but I am calling them both girls)
And anyone know what colour roady is??
Here are some pictures to enjoy (yes it is me in the pictures) Blossom is the one with the white

i dont know what color runner she is but guess what, I also have a silver appleyard named Blossom!! This was her last year lol now she is grownView attachment 3779716
She is cute and so big compared to my Blossom! I can't believe that my Blossom will get that big and bigger 🤣
What a funny coincidence that we named then the same thing I guess it is a popular name 🤣
 
@Jenbirdee I thought I would update you on how roady and Blossom are doing, Blossom is a girl she has started quacking/peeping, roady I don't know yet
Also they have siblings 4 call ducklings that are 4 days old we have spot, petunia, pip and lu lu, they can't be together as roady and Blossom would squash them or eat them
We have put the bottom on the wire cage the calls are in
Here are some pictures, the brahma hen in the outside pictures was injured by are male and has been seperated for about a month she really likes Blossom and roady and wants to mother them but Blossom and roady are scared of her, she has learnt to go really slow, we normally have then seperated (with wire in between) but because I was their I let them be together

Were your Call duck eggs shipped to you or did you have some Call ducks you got them from yourself? I was just wondering.
The call eggs in the incubator right now are from are friend who has Call ducks

A sad story below but happy at the end
We hatched his eggs last year and got 1 baby (incubator problems) which we named Johnny, she died last month (she was 9 months old) and we had her only egg which hatched and we named Jo Jo but she died at 3 days old and the day after that my hamster, fidget, died
It had been an emotional roller coster the past few months, all of this happened and then my new baby cousin was born he is so cute he is 10 days old now and the 4 ducklings hatched 6 days old now
So I guess as the saying goes their is a rainbow of hope after every storm

So glad to hear that things brightened up for you and so sorry for your losses. I hope your next batch of Calls do well for you.
