Okay friends so you remember how I finally after four years I got my own space? Well, it now smells like duck && here's why on Wednesday November 4th we found another dead duck. It was a little chilly so we panicked a bit because some of the other ducks were looking rough. We took them all inside but had no where to put them other then you guessed it MY OFFICE. So we grabbed the kitty pool and the base of our papasan sofa to MacGyver a make-shift duck cage && placed them all in my office.... in a kitty pool... with a heat lamp.
After a nearly full day they calmed down but in total I ended up losing three ducks in one day. I ended up giving the remaining ducks baths. While they dried out, I sat in class (which I was late to && I also handed in my research topic late because I got my due dates screwed up) Then I decided to winterize the coop because ya know that's what we thought was wrong with the ducks, whilst doing so I fell off the roof of the coop.... && landed on a rock.
So obviously I was not having a good ducking day to say the least. I was very stressed. Now we have 10 ducks instead of 17 since it was the smaller Muscovy ducks we have started to put together that is was actually just the 10 baby ducks we received that were sick, there are 3 from that batch remaining && we are watching them like a hawk hoping that they make it through whatever sickness it is they actually have.
Also it has taken days to clean my office because the kitty pool apparently had a hole in it so there was poopy duck water seeping into my floor. So thanks ducks for the heart attack && smelly office. Glad you're back in your coop living your best life && I got my office back.
