Molly is home

Here is Molly from back in January of 2012




I promise Molly is bigger then she looks in this picture her sides aren't like that.  I can't seem to get a good picture of her ever.  She was dropped off at our 4-H leaders farm to get breed 2 and a half months ago and we both lost track of time and I went and got her today and she was twice the size she was when I dropped her off.  after we talked and figured out how long she had been there she would have had 2 heats depending on if she took the first time or not.  If she took in November she is due in April, if she didn't take until December she is due May.  He said there is no reason she shouldn't have breed and he said we should be getting calico babies, which would be cool because his female that looks like this had calico's and boy oh boy are they eye catching.  I am excited to see the babies if she is pregnant, I also can't wait for the milk.  Wonder how she is going to milk.


Here is a better picture she don't look skinny this way.  She is wider then she was when I dropped her off.

New Additions

Well we have new updates and we will have new pictures soon.  We finally had another skunk duck I have sexed it and it is a female.  Which means the skunk duck I have has a girl friend.  We will have babies from skunky and skunket next spring.  I will post pictures in the next couple days of our new additions.


Well Skunkette was taken from us by an owl last month.  I have pictures of Skunky and he has turned out to be a very beautiful drake.


If he flaps his wings you really get to see the stripe down his back.

Skunky

On March 8, 2012 we had our little Skunky hatch out.  With Oreo we were saying a crow got in the duck house and crossed with the duck, but now we are laughing because a skunk got in to the duck house and crossed.


Skunky will be a white duck with a blue or grey stripe down his back.  He also has blue or grey spots on his head.  On his feet the middle toe on each foot has a blue stripe on them.
