So this is what I woke up to this morning, the first few pekin ducklings who'd just hatched! Hatching is sure tough work, they get so tuckered out from it all!
As everyone slowly hatched and dried off, I moved the adorable little tykes to a temporary brooder
Falling asleep
This alert little fellow is a young drake
The cat was curious about the new fluffy things....until they chased her and she freaked out (she is not a hunter, and was often bested by my former housemate's pet ratties )
Attack duckies - CHAAAARGE! (no duckies were ever more than an arm's reach away when cat was present)
They are just so cute!
