Well I made it back finally...The lady that runs the place talked my ear off....

My son had a good time looking at all the different animals out there. He was a little worried that he would get poked or billed by one of them. He did good and just kept his hands to himself for the most part and was able to pet a few ducks and chickens. The geese and swans all kept their distance.

I only got 4 today because one of the cayuga's I wanted was not quite ready to go so she will hold on to that one for me.

I got one with a top knot I thought it was cute and so I took that one...The cayuga I didn't get today also has a top knot so I'll have them both to giggle at. Unfortunately I forgot my camera in the rush to get out there so I don't have pictures of the center. I'll try to get some next time I go out for the other duck.

When I got home I put them in with the chickens and they are the ones more freaked out than the ducks. I'm sure they will all settle in within a few days. Once the ducks have been around for a week or two I will let them go down to the pond. I was told that they need to stay confined for a little while so they will remember where's 'home'.

Well got to get some other work done around here...Hope everyone enjoys the pics of the new fur babies.
