My original ducks are 4 months old this week.  Cher (the white Pekin, always front and center) and Ringo (the ring necked Khaki Campbell) are finished with their feather changes.  Sonny (the large brown Rouen) will continue to change color until his head turns a bright green.  He will look like a HUGE Mallard duck.

Cher is absolutely the leader of the pack.  I’ll get a video of her sometime soon so you can hear our morning alarm quack.

You can see that Sonny has gotten his curly tail feather.  That is the definitive signal that he’s a boy!

Sometimes when I talk the ducks look at me like I’m crazy!  Or maybe, is it because I AM talking to ducks??

Maybe you can see that the front part of Sonny’s head is turning green in the front.  His breast is also getting lighter.

Kacey can’t stand all the attention and usually gets right in the middle of the ducks to show off her fabulous self!
