SOMETIMES there are little Instagram videos that you just can’t miss. This is a milestone moment. I gave the ducklings a dish of water and they took to it – Like Ducks to Water!
Here are the stills from the same session. They are loving their bigger area – I am not quite ready to let them out into their run yet but soon they can take their water out there. They are not choosing to sleep under their heat lamp at all. And only a week old so I am not sure what that is about. I may have to herd them into a warm space for tonight when it gets cold again.
They are so like penguins.
More weeding in the asparagus beds for me today. There is no rain in the forecast for a while but lots of sun coming with mild temperatures. A Stitch in time saves Nine applies to the gardens so I am determined to get ahead of the weeds before they get out of hand. Last year they were way out of hand.
Look at WaiWai (above) standing so close to Tima. He is getting braver.
OK – off to work for me!
Have a lovely day.
Love celi

Oh those little duckies are so cute!!! Yeh they need a little tiny doll pool to float around in!!! And WaiWai looks great!!! Love that picture with all those chickens, along with Wai and Tima and a guinea hen AND Mr Peacock!!! Except where’s my BooBoo and TonTon??? Enjoy this beautiful spring weather!!!!
A friend hatched some ducklings under one of his bantams, and at only hours old they happily flung themselves into the garden pond, much to the horror and dismay of Mother Bantam. It was heartbreaking to see her running around the pond frantically calling to them…….she knew “her” babies shouldn’t be swimming.
Oh the poor wee banty! They are such good mums.
Love it!
