Who needs rubber duckies????

[tharrell]

I know it's kind of hard to see but can anyone tell what breed they might be? I was told they were buff ducks but from my research I'm not so sure. Any suggestions?

oh my goodness thats cute!!!!!! awww im gonna do that, if you dont mind me stealing your idea. i have duck eggs that should hatch next week. my daughter is 3 1/2 shed LOVE LOVE this!

The darker ones with the stripes look like Mallards or Roeuns. They look just like my Bungie.

The yellow one in front could be a buff.

I don't mean to spoil your fun, since it IS awfully cute, but I wouldn't really recommend letting the ducks in a bath with people... =/

Just seems like if something had no control over it's bladder/pooping, that it'd be really nasty to allow it in with a child that might get some of the water in his mouth or something.

I realize I personally have no children, and that this is the first time I've EVER had birds of any kind, and maybe it's just me, but I wouldn't do it.

Seeing that kind of reminded me of the way chinese traditionally raised cormorants. With the kids as part of the family.

PRICELESS!! I wonder if he would be embarassed if his future girfriend/wife were to see something so cute!!

Thanks so much everyone! And yes, I do intend on pulling that one out for his dates..... Also, Duck Keeper, it's not as though they were in there for his entire bath. They were in there for a minute tops just so I could snap some pictures. And I don't let him drink bath water. That's gross in general. I definitely wouldn't let him do it after an animal had been in the water. Most people that go swimming in lakes, ponds, and even oceans don't have any problems. I know I have swallowed my fair share of ocean and lake water and never suffered at all from it.

I know, I don't want to step on anyone's toes, just letting you know I guess. ;

I have swallowed more than enough lake water in my time.

Looks sort of like a Buff, Khaki Campbell, and maybe two mallards and a rouen? (I can't tell the difference, I've only ever had mallards.)

Your ducklings make me want more!
Curse you! Hehehe...

Yesterday I set up our inflatable pool since we just had a bit of a heat wave and a broken AC unit. When DBF got home he asked me if I was planning on swimming with my ducks! He thinks I'm a lot more nuts than I actually am, but it's hard to not go crazy for duckies!
