Charlotte

well i feel dumb.. laffin.. Charlotte is a brown chinese GOOSE, not a duck.. i could have sworn the lady at the feed store said she was a duck.. but maybe that’s just what i ‘heard’ and not what she said at all.  oh well, anyway, Charlotte continues to grow.. she’s so funny.. she’s scared of the chickens and Jack the drake.. but she chases Spider girl duck all over the place.. harrasses her no end.. i told spider she’d regret chasing Charlotte when she was smaller.. lol.. i love my babies!

had 8 chicks hatch, but 7 are surviving.  the one that died was a black chick and they picked on her so much, wouldn’t let her eat.. then she caught a cold and died pretty quickly, even tho i gave her medicine and all.  sigh.  But the other 7 are doing great, have moved them out with Mr Nibbles and he’s taking good care of them.  He loves baby chickens, and has successfully raised over 2 doz of them.
