The pandemic has not really affected my life much. I stay at home most of the time, and don’t go out but maybe once or twice a month. So solitude in my home has been NO problem.
You know, if I don’t watch the news, I forget all about it.
I moved from Upstate NY to NC in 2020 right before the...
I have 6 pekin ducks outside and 7 chickens.
I keep this duck in the picture in the house, because I’ve imprinted him. He chirps loudly when I’m not around, so I have to.
I thought he was a mallard at first, but then I started looking at the Rouen ducks, and he favors them more.

It’s only after he eats! Hmmmm??? Is this just the way ducks digest food! I read an article today, where...

I’m sorry for your loss.

I have a big garden this year! Started planting back in February, since it was fair.
Hopefully, everything keeps thriving! Awesome tomato plants! Turnips doing beautifully! I give the ducks the greens, and they love it.
