We have baby ducks!

28 March 2007 12 views No Comment

We’ve been ultra busy this week, and keeping us on our toes are our baby ducks! They came yesterday, along with 19 chickens that we gave to a local homesteader today. We’ll write all about them when we have a moment, but we’ll reveal almost all of their names:

  • Macaroni (named by J) – the yellow runner who’s been very brave and inquisitive
  • Moonbeam (named by Trish) – the black runner who channels the power of night. And, as you’ll see in the video, tends to just space out.
  • Megatooth (named by M) – the biggest khaki campbell with light colored feet, kept her egg-tooth the longest. Generally fearless.
  • Mr. Keating (named by Arp) – The bigger of the khaki campbells with black feet. Expects everyone to say ‘Oh Captain, My Captain’ whenever he jumps onto something.
  • ? (named by Trish) – Can y’all guess? It’s an ‘M’ name that’s a Seinfeld reference.
