Da' Cute and Cuddly Call Duck thread!

Well, if Hils would just assert his dominance over the lil' turd it'd be a different story! But Hils thinks he's just too delicate and won't do it!

Haha! I dunno, that's pretty cute that he thinks Wobbles is delicate. Kinda like mine thinks ours are too fragile to be outside. Makes me smile! I think they are just softies.

It's so true. Menare such softies.

It comes in handy when they can't say no to things like... Driving 3 hours one way to go get some calls.

Love that.

You are right. They don't capture the smallness of these little things. I love that they are about the size of a pigeon. Sweet babies of the web footed kingdom.

I'm not sure if this picture helps capture the size difference since there is fencing between them but I took this earlier.

So does Wobbles push him around and act antagonistic towards him or does he ignore him?

He is a TOTAL ankle biter when it comes to Hils. I admit it's kinda cute to see a tiny, toothless creature try to inflict damage, but it does get annoying real quick. I keep telling him Wobs might get better if he'd only try to assert dominance and "claim" me, but he refuses out of fear or hurting the lil' jerky-pants. Bean, on the other hand, adores him! My relationship with her is improving too, but she still nips my hands sometimes. But to Hils, she's putty in his hands. <3

Oh sure, now its there...

It's not the greatest picture really. I hate pictures when bars/cages are involved. I really just wish I could trust these little cuties enough to let them out supervised. They run from me when I go to get them to put them in and treats don't work. Boogers.
