First of all I adopted 2 little Rowen ducklings this spring, and were told they were both hens (females). Well one has a white ring around the neck and still doesn't quack, it sort of peeps. The other one quacks and has for some time now, and I think they are around the same age, but I noticed no curled up tail feathers. The one with the ring around it's neck is starting to lose some feathers if that means anything. THere are some pictures on my blog, if you scroll down towards the bottom of the first page. Just wondering if Daisy and Darla will be a Duke and Darla instead.
There are also some duck baby pictures on other pages! http://psychoflowers.blogspot.com/
I am also finding out they they love to eat everything in my pond. Somehow I need to provide some shade on the water for my Koi and water quality. So far they had a huge feast of water hyacinths. I am wondering if they will eat lilly pads?
I just love my ducks, they are so much fun to watch especially when we let them out of their pen in the morning! We were hoping to have a couple duck eggs every day, but when does that happen? We might have to fight over the one egg a day if Daisy is really a Duke!
