I'm about 15 minutes drive from work. 2 blocks would be awesome.
Good luck!

So last night after the ducks went in their pen for the evening, I took the eggs from Malibu's nest under the grass/bush/whatever that thing is. This morning, she was frantically walking back and forth under there, I guess looking for the eggs. Hubby says we can put a temporary fence around it, if I want to let her sit out there. So I took the 2 eggs from yesterday back out to her, rolled them into the divot she had made, and went back to my bedroom window to watch. She settled right one them. We'll see what happens today.
The good thing about where she chose, is its away from the dogs and other chickens, etc, but its outside my main yard. But being so close to my bedroom window, I would have good view of her. Or I could consider moving her later. I also have a security camera close above her that I could probably point down on her, and monitor remotely! I definitely get the broody bug impression from her, so we'll see.
Zoomed from my bedroom window.

And sweet momma too, that's a really cool pic of her! I hope she does good and hatches ya some round lil fuzzies!
I was in TSC this morning. .. barely resisted those stinkin' cute ducks. The little boogers will look right up at you with those little duck eyes...
Chickens are just eating, drinking and pooping. Easy to pass up. Ducks... no. No ducks. No. No. No.

I was in Rural King the other day, and every single chick in a couple different tubs had pasty butt!! A couple was there buying some for a kid. I looked at the guy and said "make sure they grab ones for you that don't have poop stuck all over their butts!" 
Still snowing heavily and blowing hard - a Nor'Easter for sure. Power kicked off about an hour ago, but we have plenty of propane and generator is churning away. Good news is I just got a call from the handler, and Tee Party just won his third field trial in a row. Question was asked, "How long can he keep running this good ?" Wish I knew the answer to that. The federation trials start in Three weeks.
But ducks are cute, and fun, and sweet, and they lay eggs too.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one that's does stuff like that...I was in Rural King the other day, and every single chick in a couple different tubs had pasty butt!!

Boooo for the snow and power outage!
Hope it's back on soon!
Wow... congrats again! Hope he keeps it up!
