    Hello All! Pretty sick of winter at this point. Dislike how my birds go into fear mode with me now that I don't spend a lot of time outside with them. I am just waiting for my gander to raise h#ll again with spring SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWLY creeping up. So far everyone is healthy with the temps...

    We plan to stay home tonight too. When I get home from work I will be putting the birds to bed and shutting the hut doors. The geese have been bedding with the ducks for some reason. Everyone seems ok with it. :idunno I have a wild rabbit hanging around the birds now. I shall call it Mr Bun...

    Wild Bunny With the Birds...

    I put rabbit food out for Mr. Bun Bun at night when the birds go in. Hubs thinks I'm nuts but whatever...add it to the list of crazy idc.

    Wild Bunny With the Birds...

    I have a wild bunny hanging with the ducks/geese during the day. Nobody seems to mind but I am not sure the duck/goose food is healthy for the bunny. Not that I want to buy rabbit food and guessing that would not be good for the ducks/geese- but I would. Maybe just some hay would be ok to put...

    Ever have an "I'm an idiot" moment?

    Hello All! Had a good one a few days ago. Our garage sink drains into a 5 gallon bucket. I fill a 5 gallon bucket from the faucet to carry to the ducks/geese. I started the water and put my shoes on to leave for work...and left for work. :barnie Mind you it is pretty cold here about 0-10 deg...

    Merry Christmas! Hope everyone had a good Holiday. Woke up this morning to the huts being drifted in- waist high drifts. I really need to use a snow fence next year. Took me well over an hour to shovel them out and I used the snowblower over the grass for a path. I shoveled last night about...

    I had the same issue last year with the bucket type. I just use the dog bowl type- but this weekend around the rim- it did freeze a little but not like the bucket type. I just think the warm part of the bucket is more towards the bottom. :idunno After this weekend I am just glad they had...

    Do all breeds of ducks dislike being picked up and carried around?

    My ducks do not want anything to do with being picked up. My male goose is a big boy and I have grabbed him a time or two when he isn't being very nice. My female does not let me near her. Not sure I could catch her without a net. I did have an African Male Goose. He was snuggly as a...

    Ducks that don't Die Horribly?

    I have had my ducks for 1.5 years. Only one passed suddenly. I have a gander who is like 4 years old. He is a MEAN SOB in spring but he is my favorite so he stays. His wife is 1.5 and is fine- just bossy. It is very cold here with a ton of snow so the goal for the next few months is fresh...

    Morning. How is everyone handling the snow? I gave up on the snow in the duck/goose huts. I am just going to have to deal with it and fix the issue on a warmer day or be ready next winter. I opened the duck hut this morning after I spent 2 hours clearing the driveway and paths to the huts and...

    Ever have an "I'm an idiot" moment?

    Yet another "talent" of mine...If I start something- I get side tracked 50 times before the first thing ever gets done. It all gets done- just takes me longer and its a hot mess until then. Example- I need to deep clean the kitchen, hey this cupboard is messy I should clean this- and wait...

    "I just don't pay attention".....yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah...:lol: My hubs is shocked on how much I don't pay attention to things. And how I can block things out. I tell him its a talent really..
