all grown up
Oscar and Olga are all grown up now. the ducks are doing well and love exploring the yard and the garden. surprisingly, they don’t bother much of the veggies as they are more interested in finding the bugs, snails, and worms in the raised beds. we have been getting one to two eggs a day for most of the winter. Fey lays the most and likes to find places to hide her eggs. Tina is better at following expectations and tends to lay in the “Duck-gloo”. Olga found her way under the rabbit barn and laid a clutch out of my reach. i blocked it off, so i’m sure sometime this summer it will start to stink under there. *yikes*
the “Duck-gloo” (we put a door on it since this photo was taken in july 2020)
october 2020 the ducks think my husband is their BEST FRIEND
november 2020 learning to go down the steps onto the lawn where all of the nightcrawlers live
december 2020 putting a water dish on the steps helped them learn how to go down them. Fey decided that the water dish would be perfect to bathe in. silly hen duck.
january 2021 discovering beds that are being prepped for gardening in the spring
february 2021 Oscar didn’t want to let his ladies out in the snow. it took them a day or two to get used to walking on it.
