More ducklings and pics lol.

The other two late hatchers are on their way! One pipped this morning and the other is inner pipped today. It's so hard to wait!

PITA has adopted my sons as his sibs. My two and a half year old got a kick out of being followed around by a little black fuzz bomb. However, my one year old thought it was a bit scary. He thought PITA was the coolest until it started running after him lol!

There are 17 of them in this picture, I got a closer pic but you can't see all of them in it. No problems this time except for one that got stuck.

This is the one that got stuck. I think it's egg was too small for it and it couldn't turn. It's legs are weak and it seems to be sort of club footed. It's feet cross each other so bad that it trips every time it tries to walk. It's slowly improving, eating well and drinking on it's own, and I hope to sneak it under the ducks at night in a couple of days. It'll have to be walking well enough to climb the shallow slope out of the pond first.
