Show off your house ducks!

Sky : My female white mandarin Ember: My wild type male mandarin they have been inside for a while, i just moved the muscovy babies outside except of course, as whoever knows anything about my juvenile mucovies THEY ALWAYS PICK OUT EACH OTHERS FLUFF anyway so one of the boys ( Pine) Moved back in as he was stripped of all his fluff over night when they were in their coop outside, but i dont have a pic Anyway back to the pic, Sky and Ember are sooooo lovable, they love to be wrapped up in a towel and poem their little heads out and loot around then quickly curl back up inside, they do this especially when i'm transferring them room to room whenever i open the doors. Also Sky has a color mutation ( You really can't see the other side in the pic) She has a black streak of about 2 feathers parallel on her sides! She is so pretty and Ember is finally staring to get his male feathers!!

Weeeeeee, Buck, that is so cute. Wrapped up in a towel. Precious. I am sorry about Pine. Will he be OK?

Congrats! I know you've been waiting impatiently.

The first ones are so egg-citing!

Man, it's tough being the last call duck mama to have an egg ;; I love my little late bloomer, but I. Want. EGGIES!

Thanks, Deb... yep, impatiently, lol... but it was a surprise...

A bitty egg from a bitty round call gurl that flies and uses her webs as landing gear. Congratulations. Kiss her face for me.

Thanks, Julie... she got lots of snuggles and kisses...

I'm sorry, Amy!!

I really thought Bean would lay before Lady Grey... :/

I hope she does soon...

I hope so, too! She's even older than I thought she was, oi...but in the meantime I don't mind seeing lovely photos of Miss Grey webs. <3 How snuggly is Lady? Does she enjoy being held, or does she merely just tolerate it?

Bean will make you a proud mama as soon as she's ready, hopefully that is soon... but gotta give her some slack since she did have such a rough start from what I heard you describe...

Lady Grey actually loves to snuggle and be held... sitting on the couch is always fun for her too... she did go through a bit of a "don't touch me" phase recently, so we didn't push it... but since she laid yesterday she is much more calm and mellow again... I think the hormone surge and body changes were uncomfortable and she was just trying to adjust and figure out what was going on...

It's true, she did. I think that's where her fear of hands came from too, poor girl...I'd be scared too if my first weeks of life were spent in intensive care!

Bean is also in the "don't touch me" camp. So is Wobbles, the jerk...I feel more betrayed by him because he was my lil' floppy love bug for so long! I'm hoping when Bean starts to lay she'll mellow out, too. For now though, they both like to be near me, although they won't let me hold them. Bean will hang out in my lap, which is lovely. But I still can't resist the urge to grab them and give 'em some snorgles, no matter how much they hate it, LOL!
