2020 Fall Ducklings 🦆💖

[WannaBeHillBilly]

You have got to be kidding me! What were those Germans thinking? They couldn’t even drop the “F” bomb if they wanted!

I can’t wait till BYC gets a new member...from Austria and someone here says, “Where in the world are you?” Uh, F*cking Austria! (I left the comma out for clarity.)

I have no idea! - But all these F*cks are butchers. Maybe an old German word for meat? - meat = Fleisch today in German, pronounced Fliesh. No idea!

Well you don't have to wait for those Austrians from ducking: I'm sure there are some folks from Pennsylvania on board:

Or from Alabama:

And what about those people from California:

Funny names all around the world!

I thought this was a fall duckling thread, not foul language or alien foods.

Feel free to post some cute duckling pictures/videos…
My Fall Ducklings have started to use fowl language already, they are the mini-quaken!

I've found four drakes this afternoon standing at the fence between both meadows, checking out the new girls using the fowlest poultry language i have ever heart…

And i thought the Amish have no sense of humour.

Hatching duck eggs in a bator is still on my list, i assume these ducks will be much closer to you than those you get from a hatchery or from the duckbator…
Can't wait for the first pictures!

Yes you can talk to them while still in the egg, so they recognize you when they are out. One of my cats sits with them during the last few days and talks to them. They come out thinking they are kittens.

Our spring ducklings were incubated in Marcies office. They got to hear her talking on the phone all day. For the two plus weeks that we brooded them they seemed to like her more than me.
