Chillin at the beach


Ahh a happy family. A rare moment of all the ducks chillin' poolside. I went outside to check on them as it looked like they were scared or looking at something, but I couldn't see anything.

I'm keeping a close on on Katcsa at the moment as the other day I noticed two scabs on her face. I'm not sure where she'd get them from as she only sits on her nest (with no eggs). If you scroll down and look at her picture you'll see the marks. I've seen marks like this before on a chicken and it came from a snake biting the hen that was fiercely protecting her eggs. I really hope that's not what its from.

I saw one of the baby girls have a go at Old Boy today and he served it back to her, pecking her and jumping on her back. He didn't do her any harm, just teaching her a lesson. I still broke it up though. Its funny the only chicken the ducks are scared of is Speedy yet she is the chicken 2nd from the bottom in hierarchy in the chicken pen.
