| hatching ducklings and a curious hen |
I have small flock of ducks of various breeds, including Buff, Welsh Harlequin, Ancona, Rouen, Khaki Campbell, Black Cayuga, Blue Swedish and Black Swedish. I raise them for their eggs, which I sell, and for their sheer fun of watching ducks go about their business.
This hen managed to build her nest in the walkway to the barn, so we were all forced to sidestep her as we went about our day. Here she is hatching seven adorable ducklings with one curious onlooker monitoring the progress.
