    Can ducks grow as pets, do they enjoy being held and cuddled or do they have more of a chicken-like indifference?

      Sigrid,

      Ducks can grow as pets. Some do enjoy being held and cuddled… it depends on the duck and its individual personality.

      From Storey’s Guide to Raising Ducks:

      “Some people extol the Muscovy as being the sweetest-tempered of all ducks, while others insist that they are nothing short of the fabled Tasmanian Devil incarnated in duck form.”

      So, we’ll see what happens! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Those ducks are so big, yet still so downy! It’s lovely to see how spring is moving along at your place.

    The sprinkler pictures belong in Idioms Illustrated (taking to it like a duck to water).

      I see my favorite that she hasn’t lost her spots and I hope that she will remain the same when she gets to be full grown so I will still recognize her and the rest, too! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Oh my goodness, there are the “after” pictures; but there are no in-between pictures! Do they still have down at that size? They look like they could be fledged out already. (Obviously, I don’t know much about ducks!) ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Leland is a very handsome goat! I love his tail – it definitely looks perky. The ducks have become a real handful I see!

    Yay! Happy Dancing for Leland!

    I love your ducks and the shot of them in the sprinkler is the cutest. Okay, one of the cutest…there have been so many, who can chose?

    P.S. I love that Bernard & Ellsworth showed up to cheer Lucy on at the clinic. They’re such good guys.
