A difficult, yet wonderful, decision. And a new home.

After MUCH thought, we decided it was best to let the ducks go to a new home. Bob met a wonderful woman named Judy who was willing to give them a wonderful home. She lives in the country, has a pond, and has 60 other ducks and geese. The ducks have access to a barn at night, and access to a pond all day. I was very reluctant to get rid of them, but seeing the home that Judy can provide for them and seeing them in a pond for the first time in their lives put my mind at ease. Here are their first moments in a pond.
They took right to it...the saying "like a duck takes to water" really held true!!

They stuck pretty close together and LOVED being in the water. They splashed, "ran" in the water, and seemed to make new friends.


Even with all of the other ducks and geese around, they still stuck together. For some reason, other ducks really seem to pick on Sheldon, but I fully believe he'll be fine.
Thank you, Judy, for giving my babies such a good home!
