Well that settles it... (*with pics*)

About a month ago i posted a topic regarding the sex of my duck Victor... I was confused because he was exhibiting signs of both male and female traits. My other duck ming mei is defnitely a female, she's small and quacks really loud. Victor is huge compared to Mingy (they are both runners), maybe a whole pound and a half heavier... He also seemed more dominate, sometimes mounting ming mei in the tub... But he had this strange quack that's higher toned but kinda whiny sounding. So we were waiting for either eggs or sex feathers to know for sure... well it's happened...

Vicotr LAID EGGS!!!! I had my ducks in their diaper harnesses while inside while i was cleaning out their pen on my patio. I went to take the diapers off, there was a cute little green egg sitting amongst the poop. I think even he was surprised!

So my little Victor is a Victoria.. lol.... We decided to keep calling him a him and not change his name... I mean he's a duck, he doesn't know any better. lol...

Victor, the proud "momma" with his eggs:

Not to be upstaged, ming mei also laid too:

This picture just proves that runners are scared of EVERYTHING! Here's me showing Mingy her egg as she flees for "her life". lol

Hurrah, congratulations.

This is a great excuse to get them a nice young man

Maybe you should name her Vicky or Victoria.

we thought about that... two problems... He only responds to Victor and Duckie, lol.... I tried Vicky but it didn't work, lol... Also, my fiance is in law school, and his law school mentor is named Victoria... She might be offended, lol.

Aren't ducks simply awesome?

beige harness i got from thegoosesmother.com, i've bought maybe 3 or 4 from her. But my ducks kept getting bigger and fatter and the harnesses are kinda expensive. I realized i can sew fairly well, so i figure out a patteren and i made the rainbow looking harness my self. It doesn't work as good as her when catching poop (the pocket is a little too deep) but i am working on it. I can see why she charges 30 dollars for one, they are super hard and time consuming to make!
