I just noticed that my Runner ducks curl fell out today :( he is molting a little, so it will be fun to see what his new one looks like. His has just a little swoop, while his brothers is a beautiful triple curl, full circle. He has such a fluffy little bottom :) Here are their curls -

Omg!! Cute curly!! I want to grab it! <3
I wish I had a pond for my ducks to swim in! Looks like they are enjoying themselves.

Thank you!

His name is Trudy (we thought he was a girl but the name stuck so we didn't change it). I a female mallard named Mallory as well.
If you watched the show Archer, Trudy Beakman is Mallory Archer's nemesis.

And these two fluff butts don't like each other either haha. <3

The curls are gorgeous and the pond is so nice. Do the ducks ever try and catch the fish in your pond? The fish look pretty big tho. Thanks for sharing the pics with us.

Cute names and it fits them to a tee since they don't like each other.

Thanks! Most of the fish are as big or bigger than the ducks, so they will annoy each other as often as they can. The ducks will dive and chase the fish, especially Bandit, our 20 year old Matriarch Koi. She will wait until they have relaxed, and suck on their feet, scaring the daylights out of them. I think she enjoys it. They fight over food too, the ducks will take the food right out of the fishes mouths! The pond is overpopulated, so we are happy the ducks are controlling the fish population. We haven't had a single baby fish survive this year, and that is good. We typically have to remove around 60 fish a year. I think they have actually eaten all of the fish eggs before they ever hatched. For the most part, they all ignore each other, but it is fun to watch them interact too. We have had most of these fish for 15 plus years, so it is fun to see them tease the ducks. Koi have unique individual personalities, just like ducks :) I should post a video of fish feeding time, it's a hoot!

Here are some photos of my rainbow trout chasing after my ducks. Quite entertaining!
