I know they would eat other things too but I'm protective of my carrots because I have a hard time getting them to sprout well. These ones are the funky colored ones too so I am dying to see them! The ducks will get the tops when I pick them though! I love watching the ducklings catch bugs. So silly. I just could not believe Marshmallow was able to eat one that size already.
Today my fiances dad was here so I brought Marshmallow outside to see him. He has not seen the ducks since they were two days old. He thought we went out and bought another, older, pekin. He couldn't believe how big Marshmallow is now. Also I wanted to show him how sweet my "little" Marshmallow is. So of course Marshmallow decided that today he would make a liar out of me

I set him on the ground and let him do his running around and then went to get him again...he is usually cool with being approached, picked up and loved on. Nope not today, today he ran away from me shrieking in front of his Grandpa (who found it to be oh so very funny!). I finally sat down with a clover and coaxed him back to me. Lolol! What a little stinker. Then as soon as Grandpa left wouldn't you know...my sweet Marshmallow was back!
My only regret in getting ducks is that I did not do it sooner so I could of had this amount of humor and joy in my life earlier!
