I went up for three and came home with six

Ducklings! 

Very pretty little things. All tucked up cosy in their dog kennel with food and a little water.  Looking forward to getting to know them well enough for them to eat out of my hand - may take a while so wish me luck.  :innocent:

Very pleased to learn that the Shetlands are descended from Swedish Blues - still miss my Jack - hell and all my wrath to the fox which took him  >:( >:( >:(

Lovely ducks Ive got three from Moira and they are delightful might be getting more and hopefully show some although they are not a standardized breed but can be shows in non standard light duck class. Have started making enquiries to the Poultry Club and the RBST about getting then standardized, might be a long process.
