I cannot believe how stupid my ducks are. I've just been out to shut the chickens' doors - 10 pm, and always try to shut the pophole into the ducks' cosy, straw filled, custom built, shed. But there they are sitting on the freezing cold ground - not grass as it's all been macerated by them but cold damp earth - just sitting there cackling to themselves. So I've just left them to what would be sheer misery for me but apparently is not for them! I daresay they'll go in eventually. :o :&> :&> :&> :&>

We obviously don't have to worry if duck feet freeze lol, they must be like penguins'...I found that they slow down and rest a lot when it's so cold. Maybe they were just too cold to bother moving at all? :&>
