How Did This Happen So Fast?

Waddles and Clyde are about 5 weeks old..... every day they are bigger and bigger. We are thinking that we should have named one of them Clifford. Actually, we don't know if they are both girls, or both boys...we just don't know. We read that the Pekin Duck makes a great pet and we have plenty of egg laying chickens. At this point we are hoping they may end up a husband and wife team. It's like they are growing right in front of us. 

 They are convinced that they are chickens that just happen to swim. I have to keep them separate at night because they are actually much dirtier than the chicks. I have to keep them right next to the chicks or else they'll just keep up with the peeping and you can clearly see the imprinting between all of them. It's just adorable! They all ready follow us around and when it's time to go inside for the night all we have to do is carry one of the chicks and wait for the ducks to follow.

For as much as we love them, I don't plan on ever getting ducks again. Cute...very very cute...but stinky....very very stinky. They are four times the work to keep clean because of the water...and other reasons;P They are truly loved though and it appears that we have two little girls who would be crushed if we gave them away.

This was my birthday cake...cheesecake...yummmmm.  My family gave me a great birthday. I'm 29 again and holding....and holding...and holding...
