Pictures! Of course! :D I have so few good pics of the chickens since they are so much quicker than the ducks, but I'll try to get some soon!

Welcome! I used to live in San Jose. My mom and maternal relatives still live there, some in Watsonville as well. Did you get your original ducklings from the Felton feed store? I'm not sure if I remember a Watsonville one but I feel like there might be one there as well.

The duckling pictures are precious. Are they all Sweets babies or did you say whether Smalls is a possible mother also? I know you mentioned Clo and Sass not being possible moms of this hatch.

Small world! :) It’s a great little community! PM me your family’s name if you’re comfortable - it seems there’s only ever a few degrees of separation between most everyone here - maybe we’re neighbors! ;) I got Mo and Clo (Pekins) from the Tractor Supply in Watsonville (it’s fairly new - probably less than 2 years since they opened), and I got Sass, Sweets, & Smalls (Runners) from Scotts Valley Feed (they’re great!). I don’t think I’ve been to the feed store in Felton, but I LOVE the one just up a ways in Ben Lomond! I think it’s called Mountain Feed & Farm Supply. Feed store stuff, plus a ton of gardening stuff and a good sized nursery (heaven!). We also have a feed store in Corralitos that I frequent a lot as well, but they don’t carry the duck feed I prefer.

Yes, Smalls had two of her eggs in the mix as well! They were the first two to hatch, and I kept track of at least one that’s for sure hers (the one with the eye stripe) but not sure about the other. The rest are Sweets’, who is starting to become very interested in what’s going on in the nursery. :)
