The Duckys

Kristie hatched a few chickens and 5 duck eggs for a school project. The chicks when home with one of her students and she took the duck home. She had them for about 4 weeks and then gave them away to friend to rise. This was a fun activity for everyone, her family and ours. We visited the ducks about every other day. Charlotte got a huge kick out of the ducks and so did I, b/c I love ducks; they are one of my favorite animals. It was so entertaining to just watch the ducks eat, drinks and just be ducks.

First day home.


First time holding one. Look at that happy face.
Yes, the ducks' okay, Charlotte was "trying to gentle".
About a week old.

Kriste took the ducks for a walk all the way to our pond which is about quarter mile away from her house and they were tired, and they did not like our pond. Don't know why.

The ducks flowing Charlotte to the ditch for a little swim.


Swimming in the ditch.
Walking back from the ditch. So cute. We'll miss them.
