Thanks everybody. Its just so amazing that something so tiny can fill your heart so full of love. Life goes on here but there's a huge hole where little Spirit was.
Spirit will be buried with Tootsie, my little Runner duckling that died on Christmas day, as soon as it warms up for some of the snow to melt. Hopefully in a few days.
I'm so honored to have been able to have this little one in my life, even for a short period of time. We're going to have a sign designed for the front of the Call duck coop in honor of Little Spirit. I'm mulling some things over in my head but if anyone has anything that they think is fitting, I would appreciate any help in that area.
Again, thank you to everyone who supported me during this whole time. From the time I found out there were two embryos in the egg all the way to losing this precious little one. Spirit knew love and he knew how to be a duck despite his size ...for just a little while.
