    Introducing TUDYBOOK - The Tudy Coloring Book Generator

    As an artist, I’m okay with this. It’s 1 AI, in 1 community, designed for 1 specific purpose - coloring pages of Tudy. If it was larger, or broader, I might be more opposed. But as it is right now, I think it’s okay.

    Introducing TUDYBOOK - The Tudy Coloring Book Generator

    This was fun to play with! I created a bunch of cute & silly images, including, Tudy greeting the neighbors. Tudy sailing across the lake. Tudy sailing across the vast sea. Tudy running from an alien invasion! Tudy lounging in her floaty with some confused onlookers. Tudy looking up to a...

    Just had to put down a bobcat :hmm It hurts, but I’d rather mourn the cat than mourn my birds.

    Ordered saxony ducks but I think one is a buff

    Seems to be, yes. How’d he look before getting his male coloration?

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

    I’ve had all different breeds and many mixed breeds. None of my ducks truly like being picked up. A few will tolerate it more than others, but would still rather I left them be. It’s just how ducks are, nothing personal. My ducks will follow me, sit by me, eat from my hand.. but any approach...

    Ducks that don't Die Horribly?

    I haven’t had my birdies long enough for that, yet. But, we just passed the 2 year mark with no tragedies! And, I’m currently working on building a new, secure duck coop. AND my eldest boy is approaching 8 years of age. So.. Good chances, I hope, in the coming years, I’ll get to see him pass...

    Duck Hen mounting another duck hen…

    Yep, it’s normal. Ducks are very crazy. It can be dominance, but for my ducks, it’s usually play-mating. My girls were all-over each other during their first year, even with their 2 drakes. They’ve calmed down a lot since, but they will still play-mate occasionally.

    Ducks

    Yep, these are both males. Females would be all-brown and have dark grey bills.

    Does my duck have a DSD condition or is she actually a male?

    I agree with cheezenkwackers, I’m thinking you may’ve mixed your duckies around. I don’t see anything that screams “male” yet in any of your ducks. You should certainly be able to tell by voice now. You can upload a video of voices elsewhere, like to YouTube, and link it here. I would say your...

    Does my goose have angel wing?

    Angel wing is something that occurs in young waterfowl when they’re first growing in their wings. So, she’s well past the age to develop that. Her wing feathers do look rather ratty though, yes. I just had a ducky with similar-looking wings. Took her a long while to molt, but she finally did a...

    Unfinished afternoon eggs, young ducks

    Good replies here. I just want to add that eggs with thin shells, eggs that are oddly shaped, and eggs laid at weird times, more commonly occur in young ducks! And, ducks might lay weird eggs, or even stop laying, during the colder months. Their age and the time of year may be adding to, or even...

    Male Female

    I agree, looks to be a Blue Runner, and they look closer to 3 weeks old, not 6. It’s too early to sex visually. Could possibly sex them by voice, but it may not be 100% reliable at this age. You can upload a video of their voices to some other site, like YouTube, and then post a link to the...

    Just how noisy are geese?

    I was super concerned about noise getting my 2 geese, but the noise has been fairly minimal. They honk the loudest when they’re excited, saying hello, or are upset / stressed about something. I can sometimes hear their loud honks from indoors, but it does not bother me like I thought it would...
