[CHICKENS-101] New beaks and bills on the block

 

Finally after a year of wanting . . . I have 3 Runner ducklings! They are chocolate. 4 days old now. DH went to get feed and they were in, tho not supposed to be there until Friday. So I had to do some shuffling today to get them into a larger brooder.They're loving that.  Silkies are out in their own house now.
Just too darn cute! I've never had ducks before so this is all new to me.
I called the pet/feed store where we got them today, at DH's request and he brought me home 3 Delaware chicks. Pullets. He was wanting them since we live in DE. Other than one has a wonky toe, they are cute lil balls of fluff.The wonky one's "last" front toe sometimes goes normal other times looks like there is no gap, but it's getting around just fine.
Ok. This might not seem like a biggie to some. But DH is suffering from a bad head cold, been working all day outside and then left work to drive 45 mins one way to do this over the last 2 days. Gotta love him!
