they showed up at our post office on the 8th first thing in the morning. it's only been a few weeks but i can already hear a difference in their voices from the males. they are nearly fully feathered now and can go out and join their mates on a full time basis.
enjoying the grass and pool on a sunny day!
we started out by housing them in the shed under a heat lamp with some supervised time with the other ducks and chickens. now they have full run of the coop but are still finding their way around. they haven’t yet figured out how to climb back up the ladder
