Meet Coco!

Yes, ........we have increased our little menagerie of pets to 15 now!!!! with the arrival of the very handsome Coco...................
originally owned by a friend of my MIL, who to be honest did not have the time to spend handling, interacting and talking to his animals. Don't be misled he cares for them perfectly well
just not as obsessed as us when it comes to spending time with them.......................he was also a bit 'miffed' that he has never had any lovely duck eggs in the year that he has owned this gorgeous creature........................and the reason?..................................it's a boy!!!!!!!!

I'm happy to say that our girls Pepsi & Splash have accepted him rather well, although because he has never been handled at all, he is very wary of most things at the moment, especially Flopsy........one of our ex-battery hens that has taken an instant dislike to him and we can only let them be in the same area when we are watching...........he has only been here for two days, so hopefully things will improve when everyone gets more used to him being around!

Isn't he gorgeous?

See you soon.....

  3. Oh he is sooo cute! My MIL used to have a pet duck - he thought that shoes were other ducks so he used to try and mate with any shoes left lying around! You'll have great fun with him, ducks are real characters :)
