Thank you! That's kind of you to say, but I didn't draw it. It's actually there as a picture to remember my family and my pet duck that died a few weeks ago.

Is the duckling in your profile pic yours? If so, what breed?

I'm sorry to hear about that. :hugs
Yes, he is mine. He is a Khaki Campbell/Welsh Harlequin duckling. He hatched with a yellow mark on his head that his siblings didn't have.

Congratulations! :celebrate I've always wanted a Khaki Campbell duck, but my seller only sells Pekin ducks and Bantam ducks.
Was your duckling hen-hatched or incubated?

You should look around, you might find one somewhere :). So do you have Pekins or Bantams now? Thanks, he's about 4 months old now and his head is all green. I'm kind of disappointed the mark didn't stay, but he's still cute! He was incubated; I've had a couple ducks go broody but they haven't been successful in hatching yet.

Bantams - And they just hatched 10 tiny ducklings! To be honest, if I really wanted, I could find a Khaki Campbell, but I think I've got my hands full with the 12 I have now. Usually, I only have 2.

Oh yay, I can imagine how cute bantam ducklings must be!
