Preparing to set call and pekin duck eggs! Hatch day should be March 4, 2021 if all goes well!

He and Bobbles can be besties.

For sure!

I found the perfect mate for bobbles! A tiny little black bibbed hen! I call her Little Bib. She is about the same size as him and full of attitude! Bobbles and Mustard are still besties and the others don’t like them. Little Bib is nice though and they all get along well. Bobbles is extremely feisty and even took on my large blue fawn drake yesterday! I was so worried he’d get hurt because of his tiny size but he had that drake on the ground and was pulling on his tail feathers!!!

Bobbles beat down!! He's like a pro wrestler.

You should definitely show us his girlfriend.

I think he should have a tv show! He definitely had some good takedown moves!

I will absolutely get some photos of him and little bib tommorow! They are too cute!

Mustard gets jealous though!

Thank you. Not yet

@shawluvsbirds how are midnight and the newest littles doing?

I hope it's OK to post some pictures of my newest three ducklings. The first picture is an adorable pic of the ASD giving us a close up. I'm unsure if it's a greenhead, blue head, or silverhead and to be completely honest, I didn't even realize there were color differences in this breed She has such a sweet look. It's crazy how much smaller she is. Ducklings grow so incredibly fast!!! These three get along so well now. It's like they've always been together. Please overlook the dirty blanket I use for ducklings. They've left their autograph behind so it needs a washing

The next pic is the older Call and the ASD. I thought both of the Calls were black bibbed, but the oldest one looks quite different from the "middle child". The older one looks to have spots VS the other one having what looks like a pattern of black and yellow. Their legs look similar, black pants with bare or polka-dotted feet. The spotted one is a day older but is the largest. My daughter has been calling the first/spotted one "Della Duck" or "Della". I'm thinking it's a Drake because the bill looks more wide and it's overall larger, so only time will tell. The "middle child" doesn't like to have her picture taken like Della and the ASD, so hopefully her pictures will be clear.

Next is the middle child. I'm pretty sure this one is a black bibbed. It's super sweet, they all are

Please let me know about the Call Ducks color. Maybe they're both black bibbed, but they just look so different

Edited to add: I believe the ASD is a greenhead, but there's a chance that I'm wrong, of course.

Tried looking up Magpie Call ducks in hopes of figuring out Della, but the results were all over the place

Edited again to add that I was wrong about the Calls. They're both incomplete magpies

Of course it’s ok! I love seeing your pictures! They are adorable! The newest little is so sweet!

Maybe ask @Pyxis but if I had to guess, I’d say your calls are either black pied or magpie.
