Three Pines Farm

It's chick time at Rural King again and I've been very proud of myself for passing them on the way to the feed aisle TWICE and not buying any (although I did order three turkey chicks from Bertram's the other day).  Unfortunately, this afternoon on my way by, some of the duckies were calling my name and I couldn't resist.  Nate said no chicks this year but I was down at the pond this past weekend and it's going to be a mossy mess if we don't have some feathered water-weed-eaters, so I brought home five Pekin ducklings.  Fortunately Nate loves animals as much as I do and his protests are weak at best (and never enforced, lol).  The duckies are now firmly ensconced in the brooder with their food, water, and heat lamps, and cheeping away happily.  I hope to get pictures soon.  :)
