The Duck Thread

[Amiga]

Hello everyone!

We have 10 ducks- Goonder, the lead male, Gunter and Gunther, the lower males, Princess Bubblegum, the lead female, and everyone else who don't have any position- Tree Trunks, Lady Rainicorn, Beemo, LSP, Flame Princess, and Marceline. Marcy has always been at the bottom of the flock, poor girl. Last Sunday, I went outside, and she was dripping blood from her side. The lower males were harassing her and plucked out a few feathers. We brought her inside, and she has been sitting in a coop in the living room and bathing in the tub.





We brought in Princess Bubblegum, pictured above, for a playdate yesterday.

Are Marcy's wounds healed up?

 

[subhanalah]

Aww, poor girl! Hope she has a speedy recovery.

Thank you everyone. She is completely better now! We have to keep her inside though, because it is about 70 inside and about 7 degrees outside!

 

[Amiga]

Right - she will need to be carefully returned to the flock. Enjoy her company!

 

[PBGGG]

Thanks! So far she has been great. She has been quacking really loud around 5AM, but she has stopped thankfully. She is much more aggressive and stronger now!

I was thinking L.D. (Little Duckie!)

Sure is precious. I think baby ducks are cuter than chickies but they all are cute! Is it a boy or a girl? I named my drake Disco
