Rounder, our little blind baby duck, is two weeks old today. She, or he, is thriving although she can't see a thing. She responds to my voice and can find her food and water if it is left in the same place in the cage each day. She loves to follow me around in the yard while I water my plants, but gets very disoriented if she can't find me, so I quack and cheep a lot. She loves swimming in her kiddie pool if the water is good and warm, and goes under and swooshes around like an otter. I've also learned two very important things: 1. Rounder LOVES watermelon. 2. Make sure you have a towel in your lap if you are cuddling Rounder after she's had watermelon.
