Barefoot Hillbilly Wife to a Redneck......

Here are a few pics of our ducks... They are Muscovies. The big ones are 6 months. I think to drakes and 2 ducks. Female ducks are called ducks and males drakes. The little ones its hard to tell yet.. The little ones are 5 weeks old. Muscovies are a big duck.. They are also good fly cotrol.. I know they have cleaned up the edge of the pond too... I will have to show those pics.... They dont quack but the males make a hissing noise and the females are a little more vocal.. But not loud. At first they would run from us!! But now they come up when they hear us and so we started giving them a little treat when they come closer.. I had them eating out of my daughters lap and out of the can in my hand. The girls wanted to let them eat out of their hands but they didnt realize their beak would probably pinch really hard!! They are neat to watch. They are suppose to be good mommas and hopefully will brood more next year! Oh and also suppose to be tasty!
