Makes me think of Blankety Blanks… ahhh, those were the days!
But that's got nothing to do with this.
To make up for Belle and India not getting any birthday presents at all on their birthday (the bikes I had ordered didn't come in on time, and family members had their own myriad of excuses), I got a couple of ducklings for them to add to our farmyard menagerie.
Sharing a space with the chickens, meet 'No. 4 Special Peking Honey Duck' and 'Kennard Canard'…….
Too cute!
Well, not as cute now they are teenagers, but we remember their babyhood fondly.
We don't know if we have boys or girls. I'm hoping they are girls who will earn their keep in the form of eggs. Not sure what I'll do if they are two blokes? I guess they are pretty good at eating bugs and flies (much better than the chooks!).
The kids were going to jump in the bath with them, but the poo-factory began before the they had a chance to hop in…
