    Sssoooo... I have 3 ducks now. :lol:
    One's HUGE, one's medium and one's little (i'm no help i know)
    I am thinking about getting more ducks for the pond but don't know ANYTHING about ducks except they come flying to my truck every morning for breakfast. :mrgreen:

    If I got more ducks (babies) would the ones that are there be mean to them or kill them? I don't know.

    TIA

    I'm trying to find pix of the ducks I have... heres one

    With that many ducks I'll bet you have a lot of bills!

    If the first picture is a muskogee then they can be very agressive to anything and everyone.

    Used to have one growing up that developed a sore throat after attacking my dad one too many times

    And while not a duck we did have several of these growing up that posed no problems what so ever.

    hehehe.

    After looking at more pictures I *think* the third one is a mallard, not sure yet though. I'll have to get better pix of them soon.

    All 3 of them have been nice towards me, DH and Buddy. I was weed eating down at the pond 2 Sundays ago and they were following me eating bugs that I had kicked up from doing yard work. They followed DH on the riding mower for a while also.

    I need to name them soon. Everytime I ride by I just say "hey ducks" and they quack. :lol:

    Hugh!!! You're bad!!! I already told DH we couldn't eat them because I already named them. :lol: Any other ones I get that DONT have names are fair game. :ack:
