Hi everyone. I’m afraid to say that he passed away yesterday morning. He had such personality and was so sweet... I must admit I cried. A lot. He was the only egg to have hatched - it was getting to the end of duckling season and quite a few were infertile. Hopefully I’ll be able to find some...

Thanks! Hopefully, his legs will strengthen up. He's a sweetheart anyway though. She's beautiful anyway! I've been helping him with balance and standing. Maybe a bit of swimming soon!
