We also got two more ducks

We said goodbye to Phoenix and Phoebe this summer. This was due to the fact that Phoenix unfortunately was a bit of a pest to the female ducks that we had here. They went to a friend of mine near Bath, who has a smallholding, and after the initial trauma of travelling settled in very well.

Being the sucker that I am, at the auction we came home with 2 more female ducks. This one to the left is Sugar, and she is a Saxony duck. The picture doesn't do her justice. She has a wonderful ginger colour down her chest and head.

We also came home with Nice. She is a Silver appleyard cross Aylesbury, again very pretty and my photo of her doesn't do her justice. They have both settled in really well to the "farmyard." They have become firm friends.
