What is this Duck thinking

Lilian is looking at something veeery suspicious



Zorro and Lilian (in the back) in the duck house. The duck house is not sinking :'D



Yesterday and today it froze and there was a little snow too. The ditch behind my house froze completely today so the ducks are now hanging around by the bridge. The water doesn't freeze as good there. Pootje the one-legged drake was there too, I was worried for him so I threw duck food on the ice and he could belly slide on the edge to get some. There were many ducks (including mine) so it was complete chaos.

I decided what breeds I'm getting!!

From Metzer Farms: 1 Pekin, 2 Assorted Runners, 1 Welsh Harlequin, 1 Cayuga and 1 Blue or Black Swedish (Suggestions on Variety?)
From Johnson's Waterfowl: 1 Blue Magpie, 1 Silver Appleyard, 6 Calls (Suggestions on Variety?)

Also I would like Name and Gender suggestions.

Edit: I forgot my Aylesburies! 2 Aylesburies from www.strombergschickens.com

SUHWEEEEEET. Aren't you excited? I am so happy for you. I can hardly wait to see your pictures of them when the WEBS are all yours.

Thank you @ViolinPlayer123 for including me in this post about your list of cute, sweet and soft soon to be your diverse flock of new birds that are all ducks. And then your Aylesburies, too. I have not ever heard of that bird.

Not to sound negative. Lol. You may want to get around half first and see that goes. I have 34 ducks total and if I had it to do all over I would have gotten the calls. Woodies, cinnamon teal and Laysan real first and probably not gotten 10 runners, 6 Anconas and 4 Cayugas!!! Lol. I love them all though!! I think I would have kept the big guys to 10 total instead of 20.

And if it were me getting 6 calls, I would get a pair of pastels, a pair of greys and a pair of whites.

I want to kiss all your ducks. You get the best action shots and I love them. Does anyone notice Zorro's very round body and find the cuteness? And curious Lilian. Why is that so cute to me?

Heehee. Is she a cute little Call Girl, or what? I'd love to hold and kiss her. Sweet little bitty burd.

 

[tomynoks]

Yea she is!!! She never let me pick her up before but the last 3-4 days she doesn't even run from me. She might even like being held!! Lol

Zorro is the smallest of my group, she is very round and a bit of a tomboy haha. I went to feed all the ducks at the bridge and I was very surprised to see a buff coloured duck. Yes that was Lilian, which means that the cute, small girl that has been visiting is another duck. How many small, adorable ducks with tiny feet and cute faces could there be at one place? And they all approach me with that curious-but-suspicious stance. Irresistible. I need more duck names.

WEEEEEEEE. HOW DO you cope with all the cute, round, sweet and funny wild visitors plus your own webs? I love that Zorro of Roundness is a tomboy. I have that pic of them on their floating house on my Mac at home.
