I suppose when it comes to fuzzy butts I am a total sucker. I had d'uccles that were lost in transit Friday so I intervened and drove to Alexandria to pick them up after work. We ran in tractor supply there since I was getting low on feed. Naturally my daughter spies the chick/duckling bins. As if we don't have enough already and as if I haven't already said that ducklings are terribly nasty in the brooder...daughter spotted a crested in one of the bins.

Ten minutes later we were in the truck with a lonely crested duckling. Why can't I say no to fuzzy butts?

Since that ride home Aflac has imprinted on her and will not leave her side. If we put it in the brooder it causes a ruckus until someone returns to get it. It will climb in your shirt if you hold it and snuggle in your armpits. *sigh* So I now have a duckling running rampant through the house behind my daughter. How will I ever keep this house clean that way?

Hey everyone! I woke up to go make my feed run, and found a brand new lamb waiting on me. The first of the year, and he's quite a handsome man! I also got my first sebbie egg of the season! All in one day. Between that and the Mayhaw jelly I picked up at the swap, it doesn't get much better! I'll post some pics of the youngster once I get to my desktop! Have a great weekend peeps!

Hi everybody, I have shoveling poop out of the barn all weekend and am exhausted, it took a pick ax in some places to get down to the sand layer. LOL Welcome to the new folks and great pictures everyone!
Congratulations on the lamb and all the fuzzy buts. Boy that fat legged chicken gave me nightmares! LOL
On another note, the Midget Whites a got from Flocksalot, hatched Friday and what feisty little fuzzy buts they are! At one day old, they are were already working on pecking order, pulling each other's beaks! The eggs were shipped from MN. last month in some really bad weather, and I got 11 poults out of 16 eggs. For shipped eggs I think that's great! I highly recommend her if you are looking for Midget Whites. She is a very nice, reliable and reasonable person. I have been 100% satisfied! Here are the new poults:

Sorry I take lousy pictures because I can't hold the camera still, but they are healthy and lively!
Out on the 11, I think 4 are hens and 7 are toms, But time will tell. I banded their legs.

Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend, it's suppose to rain tonight and tomorrow! Oh well, I need a break!LOL

Oh my goodness my babies babies! I'm yso glad you like them Celie. Wait til they grow up. You will find them to be beyond funny. Those little buggers are always up to something around here. Yesterday they were at chasing that last squirrel again. My turkeys HATE squirrels. I'm so happy to see them. Hi all from Wisconsin! I hate the cold by the way.
