5 WEEK PHOTO SHOOT!

[Ilovemyduckies]

Okay, so Ever since I got my chicks/ducklings, I have been posting pictures every week. So here they are, at 5 weeks old.


Here is Anerea, she is a Khaki Campbell.

Here is Avery, I think she is a Blue Swedish, but I'm still not quite sure.

Here is Chichi, she is an EE.

Here is Lucky, she is a white leghorn.

Here is Maroon, she is a RIR.

All three of the chicks (It was almost impossible to get a good pic of them, they would not sit still! But i did!)

I figured, trying to get a good picture of just the chicks was hard enough, so I took them outside for a group picture (don't worry I will be cleaning it later today)

So cute Whatever you do, don't get ducks with only one chick.. Saw my 18 week old cockerel try to mate his brood mates (2 khaki campbells). He has yet to figure out that he is not one of them.

@ 7 weeks

yesterday morning. He does not roost. He sleeps on the ground with his girls

That is so funny!!!!

Pretty sure that's not a Blue Swedish. I went back thru your younger pix & compared it with mine. My Blue has entirely blue bill & mostly blue feet. I think you may be right in the earlier posts as a WH.

They are adorable tho

You will be fine unless he decides to swim with them as well

Well, she was really confusing me. I asked if anyone knew the breed and they all said blue swedish, she is really confusing me

I guess I will know eventually....

He is happy to sit on the edge LOL. Though he is really dirty a lot of the time because of them. They love the rain... Chickens hate the rain.. He stays outside despite it all. He looks like a drowned rat when it rains.. Thankfully it washes anything off that was gathered while sleeping on the ground UNDER the chicken roosts.

Which is growing faster? Her or the kahki? In week 2 my Blue is a good bit bigger than my kahki. I would think a WH would be the same or smaller since they are smaller at full-size.
