@RedIII Ohno :( Must be really hard to re home one. We have had to build new enclosures to separate the drakes and females. Everyone is going mad with me at the money we are spending on the ducks. Woops!
Thank you!! They are really difficult to get around here. I dropped lucky. It was an hour and 20 min drive to get her but so worth it!!
What breeds do you have then? :) x
@lynnhill - Thank you ! They are my little babies! I get far too attached to animals . Haha
@suzy4027 - Awwww! That is extremely adorable!!! I hope Winnie will always be like that with me. Luci is not as attached and actually pretty nervous when I got to pick her up as I don't think she was...
I couldn't believe it Lydia!
I thought it would take a few days or even a week for them to get used to each other. After the initial few minutes, they settled down and were cuddled up. <3
Thanks everyone ! I know I have done the right thing . I will do! As soon as Luci has had her sleep I will take some photos! She's very nervous with me compared to Winnie .
I won't feel guilty every time I leave the room now!!

Hi everyone!
So I have brought Winnie's little friend home today. (A little Magpie duck.. thinking maybe calling her Maggie or Lucy?)
Anyway, we put her in and Winnie was terrified even thoguht she is double her size. The new duckling just wanted to snuggle and eventually they went under the...
I know! We have spent over a thousand pounds on the ducks!! We have paid £800 on coops and £300 building enclosures pplus all the money for food etc! Awww.. that a perfect afternoon,
They are so good for one's mental well-being. I love sitting and watching my duckies. They are so comical...
I all ready have 6 ducks hahah!
It doesn't matter, no.. I will love it either way. If it is a Drake, we are just going to have to put them all in seperate enclosures. My dad is busy building them all now. These ducks have cost of a fortune. Haha. Worth it though :)
I hope so :) I have a stuffed toy in with Winnie so maybe she will be used to snuggling up to something,
Just been looking at vent sexing but too scared to try it on Winnie incase I hurt her (or him!)
Thank you so much. Hahaha. Same here ! My friends think im barking mad. But do you know what? I have had puppies, kittens and baby bunnies but I have received the most love from a duckling. She makes me feel special!
That a brilliant idea. We have a spare dog crate in the shed so could...
Thank yoou ! :) Yes , Cayuga :)
I am just saying a she for now but i'm not sure. I did read up on it but apparently if done iuncorrectly, it can cause damage?
Should I give it a try??
I will do :) Just hope they get along ok.. xx
