Great pics (you know how much I like a mixed flock) and yes Jeepers has darkened quite a bit. She is beautiful!Keep an eye on her through this summer and fall. If it is like last summer/fall was for us, she will just continue to amaze you every time you look at her. (And get some pics so you can amaze us a bit too
) And I don't know if it is a breed thing, or an individual thing that has to do with preening, but Rhiannon is always the softest, fluffiest duck (with the exception of Tevye depending on the day) in our flock, but if it is a breed thing, you need to pick up Jeepers periodically just for the softness.

I known, i can't wait to see how Jeep will change, and my chocolate runner and Cayuga. I would love to pick her up but none of them like it, and they're very flappy. I'm actually trying to win back their trust. They have been so flighty and scared of people since Waffles died. Waffles would always come up to me for treats and eat from my hand, and give the other ducks the confidence to do the same. I just yesterday got a few of them to eat from my hand again. I dont think I'll ever have a duck that I can pick up
