View attachment 49895 I was Lurking my thread and here is a picture of my friends Buff with her single Chick..

Here's my broody with her back riding kid. I believe the chick is a Easter egger and probably a bantam cochin cross. Could also be part barnevelder. The yellow legs I think rules out an Orpington rooster.

Ok, so the ducks are still freaked. I am not sure how much they are eating or drinking. I moved a larger container of water closer to them. Should I remove the tarp and just let them squeeze into that little bit of shade during those hours?
Or should I wait it out until they get used to the scary tarp?

Remove it...I would. Make shade with something else?

See how you feel, it may feel like home and it may feel uncomfortable. Don't matter to me where I type, fingers hurt the same on both sites.

I would remove it too. Things like chairs and old tables can provide temporary shade. I actually never tried a tarp, it seems too scary. Try something solid. Stick some legs on a pallet like a low table?

Definitely...I'm not imbarrassed to return at all. I just had many days to reflect upon many BYC issues and not sure if I want to be there full time anymore..I'll see?..Either way I'll be able to contact you all..

Speaking of those fingers, I have to stop for a bit. Time to go out and make the rounds anyways. Catch you later, but don't expect much words out of me. Stupid neuropathy. Sorry I'm such a complainer lately.
