I don't have any cute baby pics due to a fried laptop, but what I do have is some cute adult pics taken today.

Spot, my Ancona/Magpie? drake (Any clues for breed? My kids have no imagination on naming.)

Alfalfa. my Mallard drake (I think he's half-crested, hence the name. He has a small tuft.)

Buckwheat, my Mallard Duck (We just had too! She has a small crest also.)

Alflac, my Pekin drake. (My husband named this one!)

Ms. Quack, my Pekin duck. (My 4 yr. old named her. I thought it was cute, so it stuck.)

I will be getting three of these cuties from BarnSwallow on Wednesday!!!

Thank you for offering this. This is the first contest I have entered. It is so exciting looking at all these pictures.


My husband thinks I'm crazy because I take pics of the animals every week. So updates will be no problem.

LOL..welll, there ARE duckies IN the eggs..so it counts!

BTW..what kind of bator is that!? I could get in big trouble with one that big!

That would be my new mini fridge bator my hubby was so sweet to help me with. It was an old one we had that didn't work right any more so we went for it. I spent $18 on the light in the top. $9 on the light in the bottom, $10 on the plexiglass, $2 on the old fashon thermo/hydro, .88 cent on the wood to make the boxes and about $3 on the red duct tape! LOL! I got the thermostat from an old aquarium heater. The top light has a dimmer switch and is kept on dim The light on the bottom is on high and hooked into the stat so it cuts off and on. I also have a little battery operated fan in the bottom incase I need it. I'm also going to use the bottom to hatch so chicks or ducklings wont fall off the shelf's. My other bator I was using didn't hold humidity well at all and shrink wrapped my babies.
