Dahlianut, a little lesson in animal physiology: donkeys have baby donkeys, goats have baby goats. Therefore, donkeys are not generally "with goat" but rather are "with donkey"! (I know you knew that, I'm just giving you a hard time!)
However, this gal is not pregnant (she has been on a foster farm with no males) and her son, the brown one, is gelded. No more donkeys here!
Here is Kelly with the male so you can see their little size.
Yup. Lap Donkeys!
Here are the three Icelandic ewes.
Oops. Got it. Donkeys - baby donkeys. They are just so cuddly little!!!
Iffen ya wanna rehome some babies ever...cyuuuuute!
Interested in a duckling (gosling?) who can't swim very well yet? Currently being warmed in a little fleece blankie...
Yellow felt is good....
Pictures of swims please! Pictures of swims please! (Only if the babies feel like swimming of course) And pictures of shaking and tail wiggling after please. (I'm a high maintenance friend in the winter I know... I have guilt....)
Will have to take those tomorrow. All web-footed friends are presently sleeping. Shhhhh! (they are very noisy when awake!)
I can't wait for them to be a bit bigger and for it to be a bit warmer out so they can have sunshine swims. :-)
I really want more birds -anyone have ideas how to protect DD's swimming pool and still have ducks and geese?
Fence it in or borrow my pool loving herding dog. LOL
I just snapped at him -may be too late?!
He will think you are joking the brat does not understand aggression? weird dog
The Devil Child is a gooooooood dog but having his own puppy pool might have changed his 'pooling' persception. Are they quacking dear Claire? Even if noisyful, quacking from busy little fuzzy ones would be a good thing methinks. I totally luv the busyness of birds. Who knows whats so busy to be busy about? My wild birds are so busy it's exhausting but I still luv it.
Oh that little ducky/goose is adorable in his wittle blankie!
I just want to squeeze the stuffin out of him.
(I really would not squeeze stuff out of him)
Just love the thing A LOT!
Oh, they quack constantly, except for when sleeping (like now) in a big duck huddle. Or goose huddle. Whichever. They don't really quack yet, they peep-quack. It is a different sort of peep from a chick peep, but not a quack either. Very noisyful.
Sewincircle. I already squoze the stuffin' out of him! LOL! They are all adorable. He/she calmed right down on my lap in the blankie. I will do blankie sessions with all of them over time.
They will really get to know you that way! They sure are sweet!
Did you find out a definative answer to duck/ goose?
Darn, I missed the stuffing squeezin! MAN!
No definite answers, but lots of guesses. I think I will ask on BYC.
They sure are cute either way! Jyl just posted she thinks them all to be ducks! Yeah!
Ducky wuckys! quackers and all!
I just saw that! How cool is that! I have ducks! Woo hoo! Widdle biddy duckie wuckies.
And yummy omelets! Huge eggs for cooking! woooohooo!
Just a widdle bittie quackie-wackers? Because I'm greeeeeeeennnnn.
Yes, I would love some too. DH has clipped that dream for now. :(
Maybe by spring....plot plot plan plan...
Grow, of course I'm a little bit crackers...you should know this by now!
Saltines, oyster, wheat thins? So many to choose from!
Basil and sundried tomato wheat thins.
mmmmm! Will go good with your homemade goat cheese!
Ohhhh! Wook at da wittle itty-bitty baby duckie and donkey. Dey are sooo cute!
The duck actually looks fake, it is so yellow! I sure would like to play with him!
quack quack wiggle wiggle waddle waddle! ^_^
Careful Sewincircle, don't put your back out!
The ducks are all well this morning and eager for their water and non-medicated chick feed. I'm going to the feed store on my way home from work to get waterfowl feed.
That sounds like such fun! Dont forget swimming pool party pics! ^_^
I am warmed up and stretched out. I should be okay.
As long as I dont break dance. hehehe
I'm trying to think of a good reason why we now need a miniature donkey. ; )
ummmm...because it will make the big ones feel more important and taller?
It will give the neighbors something to talk about?
I don't have bigger ones. Give me a different reason..... ; )
I wonder if I can pass one off as a strange dog.
Donk-y-poo. Get it a dog licence and you're laughing unless you have Chicken Police sigh.
Or I could get a harness and pass one of as a seeing eye donkey!!!!!
Has anyone seen Grow i Came back on the forum to Apoligize for not helping her with the wake. I told her i would help and then i got sick and i didn't apoligize when i was here today.
I looked at the other threads but didn't see her?
I was thinking that maybe if a chicken, duck or lap donkey was an employee it would get around the Chicken Police. A personal shopper maybe or a gardener assistant?
I do not think I have seen her today.
