#growing

My silkie chicks are growing up so fast! The rooster (The gray one) is crowing like crazy just because it's fun, and my hen is very active. Cookie is the gray showgirl silkie, and Peanut is the buff bearded silkie. I love them!

So maybe two weeks ago, I hatched out my first duckling. I usually purchase my ducklings from hatcheries, but my first duckling successfully hatched, after many failed attempts. See, my breeding drake has very strong genes, which In this case, isn’t a good thing. He’s had leg problems ever since...
