We got a duck! We want a male and a female, but so far we found this male, or "drake." We should be getting a female soon and then hopefully they will make some cute little ducklings. The adult ducks here aren't so cute, but the babies are. This guy is not very friendly. He seems pretty afraid of people; if he can see me at all he just freezes and stares at me unless I come too close and then he runs/waddles away. He hasn't made the connection yet that people give him food. The duck and the 6 chickens we have get along fine. They all sleep in the coop together at night. Two of our hens are sitting on eggs right now, so I should have some cute baby chick pictures in a few weeks. (but don't count your chickens before they're hatched, right?!)
