Show off your house ducks!

[Amiga]

Oh my, after I ran out of grit, I never got anymore, hes been out for a few weeks. Thx for reminding me, im a horrible mama!

Probably just a mama with many, many details to keep up with, and many changes in her life.

This is Petunia. She's a khaki campbell. I could not adore her more.

She spends most of her day outside, but every so often this summer if the side door was left cracked open she'd push it right open to get out of the NC heat and into the cool AC!

Thank you, love sharing pics...

You're welcome to come snuggle and kiss them anytime you're in our neck of the woods...

oh, thank you so much. I'd totally take you up on that. I really need a dose of call duck.

No you are not. Don't say that. You are a very busy woman who does a great job for your whole family.

Wobbs: "Oh jeez! I can't take a load off without her pointing out just how fat I am! Here she comes again..."
Bean: "Then bite her or lose weight, Tubby. Stop complaining..."
Wobbs: "OH NOES! GAH! SHE'S DOING IT AGAIN! HALP!"

You crack me up.

The for answering, I was told you personally could help. I will get a pic sometime today. He calms down after he has it on. I was thinking I padded it wrong bc I put a piece of my toddlers swimmer diapers in it which let's water go through it, ahh I'll learn, its brand new to me and JoJo. What kind of setup do u have for when he sleeps and doesn't have his diaper on? I have him in the kitchen now bc that's the only tile floor in my house but that's not going over to well with my husband, I need something different asap!!!

Wobbles sleeps in a large plastic bin, but other house duck keepers use a big doggie kennel or crate. I use the bin because he's so tiny and the whole thing can fit o the bed so he can see me and feel safe.

And you're not a bad duckie mama! Heck you want bad duckie mama, I nearly killed my little Bean when she was just a few days old because I'd lost a duckling prior and wanted to give her a preemptive shot of antibiotics. She had a bad reaction to it and nearly died, it's a miracle she pulled through. And now she's my beloved baby Bean <3 Ducks are a steeeeeep learning curve, and that goes double for house ducks! It's like having a kid, you can read and research until you think you know all there is to know, but the second they actually come into your life you realize nope, that's all out the window, lol!

But yeah, I'd probably switch offa the breathable toddler diapers. What breed is Jojo, again? I just use a maxi pad, but like I said, tiny ducks = tineh diapeh

Awwww, what a clever duckie! Petunia, eh? Hehe she is LITERALLY a cutie petootie!

My favorite is when they lie down with their feets all tucked in, then I'm all 'BUTTER LOAF!" and can't resist snorgling the heck out of him, much to his chagrin 

Hoopoose Butter Loaf is gonna get the snorgle treatment fast. Fat little plump little turnip pancaking butter loafed webbed feeted sassy lump of Wobbles.

Jojo is a Pekins. I need to find something to keep him in while I'm at work. He's in the kitchen bc that's my only tile floor and my hubby REFUSES to change duck diapers even though he likes jojo now, he at least feeds and waters him, won't wipe up poo so no diapers no poo. He's on pet pads then but my hubby us complaining about having to yell at my 20 month old to keep out of the kitchen and I get it. A kitchen is not the place for an animal that relieves himself every two seconds. I'm off tomorrow so I'll take pictures. I was reading a thread earlier, you were in it. But it was a dog pen on amazon. I loved it, I just don't know if it will work. I don't wNt jojo locked away while I'm working. But especially with another kid on the way, I HAVE TO get him out of the kitchen! Any suggestions? Sry to ask sdo many questions, I'm clue less on house ducks!
