What cute fluffiness! We JUST moved to an area that allows it, this week we got a chicken coop and will be getting our pullets end of Aug, then a new baby due in October
just want to adjust to all of that first lol!! But in the next year or two we’ll be taking the plunge!
No, Ralphie! These little ducks are so incredibly soft and sweet, even if my Ralphie Dux is a little too amorous!Please, for the good of humankind, get a new goal!!
A turkey or goat would be nice to have, don’t you think?
Congrats on the chickens, but especially on having a child! You will love having chickens, but nothing compares to the love you’ll have for a new baby. You will have blinders on for a while — and only have eyes for your sweet little one.What cute fluffiness!

Chuck and Buck do soil everything and everybody! - If i remember correctly @SuperDuck has »duck blankets« in reaching distance all over her place. You want to cuddle with the boys, just grab a blanket…No, Ralphie! These little ducks are so incredibly soft and sweet, even if my Ralphie Dux is a little too amorous!
And, I have taken advantage of him running up behind me and weaving in and out of my legs when I keep walking, in spite of him almost making me fall. — It (falling) will happen for sure at some point. I just hope he’s quick enough to get out of the way when I finally hit the ground. He might become Sqush Duck! — Each time he does this, I bend over and scoop him up and hold him, loving on him till he squirts poop on me. I guess I’m gonna have to invest in a duckie diaper. I just wonder how Chuck & Buck don’t soil everything they touch!
Just don't be fooled by the fluffy cuteness! - Compared to chicks, ducklings produce a lot more poop and are much messier. Last fall one of my neighbors was overwhelmed and i had to take in her ducklings. She has been faithful to chickens ever since…What cute fluffiness!

Oh no! You have already been conditioned by him: He is running between your legs to be picked up and cuddled by you! Cats and dogs so the same to their owners…No, Ralphie! These little ducks are so incredibly soft and sweet, even if my Ralphie Dux is a little too amorous!

Do you really think he’s doing that for me to pick him up? I originally thought it was some kind of male maturity thing, but he is not aggressive at all. I’m really not sure how a drake could be aggressive like a rooster could.Oh no! You have already been conditioned by him: He is running between your legs to be picked up and cuddled by you!

The little back-end accident is just a joy-poop!
Some of my drakes are aggressive towards me, they won't run around my feet, they (try to) make their stand in front of me, assuming a posture as tall as they can and rasp with their bills wide open. They think they can nibble me to death…
Ha, no rooster here but Quatro the drake is a terror. tries to amputate my toes blood blisters on my hands and legs.
