Oh how sweet they are!! Iยดm looking forward for many photos of them!
That will be not easy to keep them apart. I start with Harriet, she has a nice stripe ๐
Oh my! Aren’t they the cutest little things???? Do you have a pond at your place? I have 8 new chicks and I’ve been thinking of names. Thanks for some good ideas:-)
Awww they are so cute!! I loved raising ducklings even though they were incredibly messy lol. ๐ I think ducks are my favorite poultry to photography. They are just so fun.
They are so adorable! I scrolled down the pictures several times savoring them before I could make a comment. I love ducks! I’m looking forward to watching these babies.
Utterly adorable. So now I’m thinking you flew to Virginia to pick up some kind of rare heirloom ducklings. Or…perhaps I’m missing a few steps here. ๐
In that second last picture it looks like Isabelle is smiling. I didn’t know Ducks could smile, but then she and her sisters have a lot to smile about ๐
They’re so lucky they didn’t get bought as Easter presents for some kids who’d soon get bored of them. That happens to so many Ducklings and Bunnies this time of year and then they get neglected or turned in at shelters.
Awwww…ducklings! I didn’t know you were going to get ducklings – how fun!! Do they need a coop like chickens do or are ducks usually just free to come and go as they please? I don’t know much about them, except that people keep telling me they LOVE to eat slugs. ๐
Gorgeous pics, btw – incredible lighting. Well done!

Danni,
Not that we’re experts yet, but we understand they’re more free to come and go as they please…
So… if they LOVE to eat slugs, it would appear that you might need a duck or two? ๐
