Photo Contest #71 "H20" Ends at the end of June

[Bud's Darlin']

I love the photos!! How do you make ducks a pet?

I'm not sure if you're being serious....... but if you are, we got them as ducklings (first time this year) and we've raised them and then put them in a chicken run with our chicks - they've been caged up since spring break and about a month ago we started letting them out to free range, they're doing GREAT. Having them out free ranging has definitely more fun for all of us and it's the best part of my morning filling the pond and letting them play. These photos were taken this morning, it's going to be a SCORCHER!

Btw, thanks and they were bought for enjoyment and hoping to get a few duck eggs, too.



"chatting around the water cooler"


Larry, Curly and Mo (not their actual names and they tend to respond to Quackers)


pond & water hose fun


drinking straight from the fountain.


Our brown duck's head/face is turning green - does anyone know what kind of duck this might be?


After a swimming, you always need a good shake....
