    First night with the big ducks. (Isn't she so pretty? Hm... Should've cropped my Marans cockerel's rear end out of that. )

    My ducklings got a bath yesterday. (They got the tub after the silkies) In other news, lost a silkie yesterday. It was so cold it couldn't cope. I grabbed the last two and put them in with the babies. They're gentle enough not to care. One of them had feet that were ice cold, might lose that...

    Brrrrr!!!! Bad idea to spill water from your bucket on you when it is below freezing outside. Good thing I have some heat in the coop today. Man my legs were cold!!

    Lock-down commenced! It is a good thing I used Hatch-a-batch to track these; with my wedding being this week, I'd have forgotten to lock down my eggs otherwise. At least 1 duckling is internally pipped. It was cheeping like mad when I had the incubator open. Hope I didn't miss anything...

    Had to chase off a stray rooster again yesterday. My neighbor doesn't have an official coop and so lost most of his girls. His roosters are looking for a new harem. My poor cockerel keeps getting chased into the snow. Fixed the stray's wagon yesterday, though. I sicced my chihuahua on him. He...
