Aww
That is sweet!

Why do we all get so excited over little dictators
Ducks have some kind of hold on their owners

It's like @Isadora said, Stockholm syndrome.
That, and those cute little eyes just make you lose all rationality!

I just got in from giving Sprightly hugs, and giving the girls some banana. One of their favourite treats and they were very upset about the bunny getting some too
Dougie is now just staring into the bunny pen at the leftover banana, acting as though she's starving, and been betrayed.
(She has a full bowl of food sitting there, just ate an egg, and some banana. Her crop is literally full.)

Not one of my ducks will eat banana
I have tried
They also won’t touch scrambled eggs

Wow

My girls aren't super keen on egg, the shells they go nuts for. But they will have egg from time to time and will eat some. Dougie likes it more.
Banana was their first taste of anything besides their food. They've been addicted ever since. Don't get them that often, but when I go outside holding a banana, their faces light up!

Just name it dictator
Nobody else has called a duck like it is yet

Hmm maybe!

I finally caught the little egg rocking on video
4 of the 10 are shadowing and pushing on the air cell ( not in it yet )
Air cells dropped fast and one egg was rocking to my whistling
Other 6 eggs by morning will be ready then full incubator lockdown will begin
Let’s see if this crew can let me relax and all 10 hatch without my help
It’s the top left egg. If you scroll in on that egg it’s much easier to see

thank you for sharing

I'm counting my blessings!
My girls are well behaved in... some areas.
I can leave the pen door wide open while "mucking out" their pen. Although, they do get in the way lol. They stay inside, or stand at the door and watch me. I have to step over them to get back in
If by chance they go to step out, I can simply call them back in or give them a nudge back inside.

So well behaved! (In only this scenario).
I'd love to let them out to go in the garden, but it's illegal right now.

Who are you calling grandma??
I'll have you know I only have one generation of ducks!
