Baby Ducks


It has been an adventurous week -- as if every week is not an adventure in itself. We were waiting for our duck eggs to hatch and they did ... we found one just sitting by itself in the chicken coop on Tuesday evening, then another one the next evening. And then had to assist one of the ducklings out of its shell (Martha did this -- pretty bloody!) because the shell had become hardened from lack of moisture and too much heat. So, now we have 3 thriving baby ducks: Quackling (Sage's), Blackey (Mine) and Shelly (Aspen & Ryan's). Enjoy the pics.
