The Ducklings have arrived!

We now have 9 Peking ducklings added to our farm. They are only 3 weeks old & still have their yellow fuzz. At about 8 weeks old, they should have their solid white feathers & be ready to be outside. In the meantime, I will be preparing their cozy duck haven near the barn for the springtime.

Notice how they are waiting in line to take a dip in the "water hole".

 
Here they are taking a bath.

  1. Aww! They look so happy! I love the watering hole idea and the pic of them waiting in line is so funny! The boys are so excited about seeing the ducks online, and in fact, they think the ducklings are famous! Please keep the updates coming. We are so glad we found such a wonderful family and home for them!

      We really are happy to have them added to our farm family. Thanks for sharing your feathered friends & allowing us to adopt them. Y'all are always welcome to come for a visit.
