Duckies and Chicks, Oh My!

[saxgoddess25]

Updated ducky picture. Going to have to move them to a bigger house. They're getting so big! And I'm hearing the first little quacks among the peeps.

Thank you, I might name the BO Nugget.

Oh, I thought her name was “Bo” .... something to consider

Had to clean off Gabby's pasty butt again tonight. Boy, is she really bitching at me now!

Yes! Interspersed with the peeps and yelling at me for fresh greens.

Added three more chickies to the family.

Their cousins are doing well. The Orpingtons are making me laugh all the time. Boy, do they love to fly!

The ducks are in a temporary holding pen while I revamp their coop. One of them had to be separated because it was being super mean to the rest.

I have graduated to being used as a perch.

Hi all! I had a thread in the ducks area about the new ducks I got a couple of weeks ago, and last night I added chicks. Thought I'd make a little thread over here to post the cute.

Buffy, the Buff Orpington:

That's probably the funniest part about raising chicks.

That last pic with Fred is adorable.

Yes, they certainly did love sleeping in it. My last two babies that are in the house (lavender orps that are getting big enough to go out now) like to roost on the straight feeder I've given them. They're hilarious.

And thanks! Fred thinks he needs to herd the ducks and bark at the chickens.
