4 years old. Sassy and her two puppies are doing well. I was wrong in thinking there was a third.
We had a great deal of thunder, lightning, and wind last night; now it's getting cold so I rather think the storms are over. I wouldn't be surprised if we get snow today. I haven't checked the weather report yet. I do need to get outside and clean up the yard before there is snow.
Thanks.
Thank you. We are pleased. It was a hard birth for the first pup and a harrowing 15 minutes trying to get her breathing normally. The boy came fast after mom took an hour break. It took us hours of waiting before we realized the third lump was a merconium (puppy poop) filled placental bag and not a third puppy. Sassy is doing great and now in her very protective mother mode. The girl seems just fine now too. We named the puppies Hanzel and Gretel.
I saw the time zone thing this morning and didn't have the slightest... Now... Happy time zone everyone!! I like it too.
I think their gorgeous; my flock is a rainbow of colors. I haven't found any eggs for a week or so. I've had muscovys nest at all times of year; even when I lived in WI. TN winter is comparable to WI early spring. We got our first snow last night and it will probably be gone by nightfall.None of your ducks are laying? mine haven't laid an egg since Oct. this is all 12 of my females. Sorry about the eggs getting cold. Amazing having a Muscovy brooding this time of year.
What gorgeous Calls
