Hello all,
I'd like to introduce our rescued duckling, Luckee!!!!
(Here I am at about 3 or 4 days old (?)....this is the day I met my new family! - April 9th, 2012)
Birth mommy took her babies on a walk down a busy street and lost one through the grating over a storm drain.
S/he fell pretty far, but seemed perfectly fine.
Fortunately someone noticed and we managed to lift him/her out with a rake!!
Now I cant imagine what I ever did without this little one following me around all the time.
(Curled up on new momma's arm - 11 days old)
I love the way s/he stretches both legs out and just leaves them there!
....and when s/he crawls into my sleeve...
(16 days old)
(16 days old - April 21st - Loves the stuffed duck toy, which makes a great cuddle buddy at night)
S/he is adored by many, and a very "Luckee" duckling, indeed!!
Here we are, both sets of mommies and daddies, watching his/her first bath...
(20 days old - Bathing in the presence of my fan club)
S/he is growing so FAST...those cats at the feed store mess with us less every time
we go in there!....and s/he's making friends with the bantam chickens.
(24 days old)
(Playing with the dog - 25 days old)
LOL....I LOVE IT!!!!
Anyone else have a newly rescued duckling?...or any advice for us?
This is our first duckling...until now, we've been a pet-chicken-type household.
(btw, we're pretty positive that Luckee is a Mallard...dont know the sex yet)
Thanks for stopping in!
