Ducky update (with pictures)

[seashoreduck]

So my non-walking duck is now back up and walking around. Does get tired much faster than the others and is still quite a bit smaller, but all are enjoying the baby pool. She has the funniest waddle.

3 females
1 male

Dizzy Lizzy
Webby "Spaz"
Mercy "Duck Duck" aka Gimpy
And Charlie or really CHARILEEEEEE (after Charlie the unicorn)


Charlie on the ground before the gals convinced him to join in, Webby trying to attack the side of the pool, Lizzy in the back getting ready for trouble, and wee Mercy in the front peddling around.


Is there anything as cute as duck hinies????

So glad he's doing better, too. They're 9 weeks now and learning how to fly. Mostly alot of wing flapping and toe skimming as well as a few really rough plows into the ground. Way too funny to watch.


We're expecting torrential rain overnight so gimpy may come in just to be warm and dry as the duck seem to trapse water into the doghouse (their favorte roost.)

Charlie has a pronounced curly tail feather....does this mean the others (who lack tailfeathers) are female?

9 weeks seems young to be showing the drake feather already so you may just have an over achiever on your hands, I'd wait at least another month before pronouncing who's who for sure.
