I wanted a Barred Rock SO bad. I had one with the original flock, and one day she came up missing. So as a surprise by boyfriend went out and got me two more, since it needed a companion, and one day when I got up to feed them one was dead. So I had to get her a new companion, and saw Oswald.
This pretty girl almost didn't make it when our little dog decided he wanted to play with her. I ran over as he was dragging her away kicking and screaming. Thus the kiddos named her survivor.
Poor little fella was raised with Henrietta cause her companion died. So the other ducks haven't accepted him. It's kinda sad. He's been skittish since he was a little duckling. We bet he ends up flying away. :(
I found this one and the shell was paper thin. It broke when I barely grabbed it then the hens started to eat it which felt horribly wrong to me! Aagh!
