Ducklings 2023

We collected a new batch of day old ducklings during the week. Here is a photograph of them at two days old. They are huddling together under a heat lamp for warmth. They will grow very quickly and should be more or less feathered up after four weeks at which point they will progress to a house and run outside if all is well with the weather.

    1. Yes, they are rather cute at this age. Lambs arriving very soon.

  2. The ducklings, as most baby animals, are adorable. Have your ewes begun to lamb?

    1. A few more days to go before lambs are due.

    2. Hoping all the ewes deliver safely and without too much of a fuss.
