Sorry to hear of the beat-down Stargazingmommy...I am familiar with that. About 3 weeks back I had a really fat lip that looked like someone punched me pretty good...and I let people think that I got poked in the face rather than explain that my drake decided to try and bite my lip off....
Also getting a collection of lumps on the side of my head from Buddy thumping me when he dings my head with his beak as he shakes his head around...like being tapped with a small hammer. That beak is harder than it looks!
Christmas morning was good. Took the little one to the neighbors house so their baby could 'pet' the duckie...the duckling is a bit more fiesty than I expected..and started chewing on the kids fingers ! Fortunately it was not hard and the kid loved that and laughed his pamper wearin little butt off...
No serious wounds or damage except for the poo streak running down the front door where the duckling aimed and fired as I held her and closed the door. I'll hose that off tomorrow. I did'nt have a wreath to hang...
For Christmas the 2 big'uns got a warm bath in the tub, ( which they absolutely love) and I changed their pen, and will be doing the little ones later, and all is well.
The neighbor is walking around trying to spot the RC Helicopter that he lost in the trees....I'm sure it'll fall out some day. That was a short 1st flight..! If I had been thinking, which I don't usually, I would have bought an RC car for the ducks...
Might do that this week. I'm sure they'll enjoy it alot.
I hope that everyone is having a very Merry Christmas !
I have friends, some family nearby and of course, my ducks. More than I could have hoped for.
