UPDATE: DEC 5, 2023
George made 'em, Marilyn hatched 'em and today one of them briefly walked on air. Della Mannix became airborne a couple of times. We did not get it on video but we both saw it. She is lighter weight than the others in her flock so she was literally lifting off as she flapped around the play area.
DELLA flew at 10 weeks and one day.
--------------------------------------REGULAR POST STARTS BELOW--------------------------------------
As we get closer to seeing our new baby ducks have their first flight, we went back to double check when Lucky and Bill flew the first time.
Lucky and Bill were born April 1, 2023, and flew on June 11, 2023 (actually Bill flew first...). That's 10 weeks and 1 day.
So.......
George's babies should be flying soon - in mere days.
And Billie's babies (raised by Marilyn) should be flying by December 4, 2023.
Awwwwwww!
