It all goes back to him being a backward hatch. He not only walks in circles he cant swim either. Ive been trying to teach him since he was 4 days old. Every time i would let go of him in the pool he gets excited, throws his head straight backward and turns upside down and then starts to paddle with his body that is supposed to be topside underwater. He is just now learning to bathe himself in a kitty litter box without almost drowning lol i was having to give him his ducky baths to keep him clean. I think hes scared of water lol which i never thought id see a duck scared of water or couldnt swim.

He's very blessed to have you as his caretaker. I'm glad to hear he is making progress, But I wouldn't give him any vodka no telling where he may end up.

That is pretty crazy. How old is he now?
 
Breeding season may be months away but Boris could not stand any taller and strut anymore than he does now. In the summer he is so laid back.
