Finally! They have arrived!Seven happy little ducklings arrived this afternoon and, due to the cold temperatures outside, Little Man was able to visit with them in the kitchen while the brooder was warming up.
This set of ducklings is much more social then the last, possibly because there are more this time. We started the socialization process with them by feeding them by hand and within minutes they were jumping in and out of our hands. One even tried to take a nap in my hand.
My favorite part of having ducks: they are really fun to watch. The second I placed a small dish of water in the box for them to drink, this little guy went for a swim. From there the ducks leisurely took turns jumping in and out of the bowl. As you can see, I am very excited about our new ducklings.
