Thanks!

And probably the wonderful gift of getting to muck out their coop tonight

So they are getting paid a clean coop

That painting is beautiful
My daughter said it looks like they are going to see the queen

Thank you!
They do look rather posh

I've not been around that much lately
But I thought y'all might appreciate this portrait I just finished of my abuser- *cough* I mean, ladies.
They hired me to paint them in all their majesty... I haven't received payment yet... but...

You truly have a gift!

They really look like they're in their best dress looking down on you for being ragged, but given that my ducks give me the same look... I think you just managed to accurate capture their attitude.

How are your girls doing these days?

It's giving "peel my grapes, peasant"

How are your girls doing these days?

They're doing very well I'm happy to report, Dougie is mischievous as ever, and Sprightly is doing very well health wise, no laying issues all winter! Thank you for asking!

Well, now we know what you should title it.

That's fantastic! I'm glad to hear it!

Well looks like I’m up for the challenge again
Me verse twin ducklings
I was so close last time and was given the opportunity to try again
I know it’s very hard and not a high chance
I was told they won’t make it past day 10
I incubated 2 eggs last time and got right to hatch
Missed the bruising on both eggs
My twins were fully developed just needed air much faster then normal eggs
My alarm will be set this time
Day 3

So... I visited tractor supply... And the abuse has already began.

I wasn't planning on having ducklings right now. ....but they're so cute!

(TSC actually had Cayuga ducks, which I have wanted for the last 18 mos, but they were never in stock, so of course, when I wasn't planning on having ducklings is when they have them in stock)
