on the subject of ducks & chickens [and new additions], we have a new chick in the house that our duck hatched out. i am thankful she didn't abandon her eggs, which need another week or two, and Pansy was fine to take it until i put them in the wire brooder for safely from rats, and she panicked because i wasn't catching the other seven fast enough to put in there. i think she stepped on him, he could walk before and now can't put any weight on his leg...

father is Best, hen is Sweets, so i named him/her Chocolate!

hope it makes it. really pulled my day off schedule... but, so cute and sweet! Either a brown Jersey Giant or a Black buckeye LOL
