CRITTER UPDATE (part 1):

Cats:
When our younger ducks were growing up, Tommy boy apparently decided that taking up duck hunting would be a fun hobby. He killed Shaw and possibly Brownie. As this was of course, unacceptable behavior, we had to re-home him. We sold him to somebody who has him for a mouser now. He's an indoor/outdoor cat, and gets plenty of luxurious treatment at his new home. I'm sure he's happy.

Now as for Timmy, he's a good boy, and knows not to bother ANY of the poultry. He's been living a good life. Getting lots of love and attention from us, going out and hunting whenever he pleases, and just being a fun little guy to have around. He's over two years old now!

CRITTER UPDATE (part 2):

Ducks (and goose):
The OG girls, Splotch and Cumin have molted recently and are doing very well. Hale and hearty as always, with many a loud and obnoxious quack to offer!
The babies from this spring are SO BIG!! They're pretty much adults now. Lily and Alex are beautiful hens, while Hank and Mac are the sweetest and handsomest drakes alive! They're just starting to grow in their curly tail feathers.

And of course, no waterfowl update would be complete without GOOSIE. Madison's still learning to live with her disability, but I dare say she's doing quite well! She's been growing a lot too, and now has all her flight feathers in. So when she wants to go fast to catch up with the duckies or come running to me for treats, she pushes off with her good foot and half-flies across the yard, going quite quickly.

Here's one of my Red JungleFowl cockerels.
He made me chase him around the yard today.

Can't you believe he's only 3 months old? Fast growing birds.

I’ve done so many of these today I think I’m getting better at them. Maybe I’m just getting better at guessing
