I was just looking at one of those cute squishy bellies last night, wondering how they can keep it so white when they make such a mess!
Isn't that amazing how the muck just rolls right off them, well except their bills(or is it beaks?)
Never sure on that. I haven't installed a ramp or stairs to the coop yet, so they have to be picked up and moved. The real fun is trying to catch them at night when it's bed time. I get a little less cuddle time when I have to kick them out of the pool first. They drip.
I know this is a sort of old topic not to old but not resent. But I to love my ducks, I have a ancona hen that doent mind me petting her, but doesnt like to be picked up either. I LOVE HER her name is Maize! She is awesome!
I hug my ducky babies too!!! last night I was also finally able to let my girl sleep in the bed with me again bc i made her a diaper lol. she was so happy!! they love to cuddle back too!!
I chased mine down last night and got a hug out of both of them! lol I probably traumatized them as well but they still love me and follow me around the yard!!
I kissed on them and petted them, touched thier feet and checked them for bugs. They seemed pretty clean to me. I noticed thier down is really thick too! My daughter Maddy came over and gave them some lovin too!
