I got in some extra special Samuel lovins today. It's hard to tell in the pics, but he's calmly sitting on my lap, just hanging out, letting me pet on him. He's the sweetest boy 🤍

The founding duck himself, Harley!! 😍 This photo came up in my memories on my personal page from four years ago. We sure do miss him every single day. But we're so thankful for all of the special memories and the legacy he created. 💚

It's hard to believe this has been a year ago. Although Amos' sprain didn't heal 100%, it doesn't slow him down a bit and he's doing great!

A couple of our boys had vet visits today. This is Amos, one of our adopted boys from the massive OH restaurant rescue last year. Unfortunately, Amos suffered a leg injury last week that just wasn't showing improvement. So off to the vet we went for x-rays. Nothing is broken, but he does have a bad sprain at the ankle. The vet splinted his leg and we'll continue the anti-inflammatory/antibiotic regime that we are already doing. Hopefully, he'll be as good as new in a couple of weeks.

This picture is us after his x-rays, waiting for the vet to come in to make his splint. He rested his precious little head in my hand as I was petting him. He will never again have to endure the horrible neglect he suffered at that despicable restaurant. What a difference a year makes!! 🥰 🦆💚

Happy one year gotcha day, Atticus! He is the coolest guy ever.

Little did he know that in just a few short months he would be reunited with his best buddy, Adonis. Their story is so neat and they are inseparable. Such a tight, loving bond. We are so privileged to get to witness it firsthand every day. 🥰 💚 😍

I have missed being able to spend time with the boys during the extreme cold temperatures we've been having. I took advantage of the above freezing temps today and got some extra special, much needed Samuel time. He sat so sweetly on my lap. 🥰

Some neat pics of the boys this evening before bedtime. I was trying to capture the huge, extremely bright planet that's visible (I'm getting mixed answers from Google, so I'm not sure which one it actually is).

Today was a crazy day...I let the boys out for the day and gave them their breakfast like usual. Just as I came back inside to get ready for work, the outdoor fence lights went out which means something tripped the circuit. This is bad because we have 14 heated water bowls and buckets for the boys to have the access they need to fresh water.

With temps in the single digits this morning, I had to find the cause of the power loss. I thought it would be simple to find the source, but every single plug I touched was completely dry and no moisture build up (which i was glad that the effort I put into keeping everything as dry as possible worked, but also frustrating because I was unable to find the culprit).

So I had to miss work in order to try to keep their water from freezing over, which is an undertaking in this weather. I continued to check each plug one by one, and through a time consuming process of elimnation I finally found it! It was one of the extension cords itself!! I'm so glad my Clark Griswold exterior illumination skills finally paid off. 😁 And the boys thankfully have the fresh water they need, which is such a huge relief!

Today was vet day for three of our boys and Atlas called shotgun! He was such a fantastic co-pilot. Rico and Duncan were "relegated"to the back seat. 😁

Atlas is already on medication to treat his arthritis, but recently he started having more difficultly standing and walking. Both of his upper legs became severely swollen and hot to touch, which typically means an infection. The vet confirmed this and prescribed an antibiotic that will hopefully rid him of the infection.

Duncan, a beautiful Rouen that we took in a couple weeks ago, has walked with a limp since he arrived. There wasn't any visual sign of swelling but we wanted him checked out to make sure there wasn't something more we could do for him, even though he gets around great. The vet felt around his upper leg/hip area and noticed what is likely an old injury that didn't heal correctly without the proper treatment he would have needed at the time. She could tell that the muscle in that leg has slightly deteriorated, compared to his good leg. But all in all, he is fine and no further treatment is needed. 🥰

Rico is a handsome Ancona that was one of the first few boys we took in. He's had an ongoing issue with a slight prolapse for the past year. It will get better then appears again. There's no swelling and the tissue is completely healthy. The vet thinks with a little assistance it will eventually get better. 🙏

A few pics of some of the boys after the snow finally stopped today. Thankfully, we got an adult snow day from work so we were able to stay home to shovel them out and put fresh straw down for them to snuggle down. 🤍

All of the birthday wishes are meaningful,  but this one kind of took the cake 🥰 🦆💚

We made a road trip to Dayton last night to pick up these three beautiful boys. They have such a cool story, thanks to some amazing and dedicated people that were committed to rescuing them after they were carelessly dumped, along with two other hens. They watched over and fed them for weeks until they were able to finally capture them from the icy pond a few weeks ago.

Please meet Gunther (blue swede/gray & white), Duncan (rouen/brown chest), and Brooks (khaki/brown)! We are so thankful they were rescued and now get to live out their lives knowing nothing but love from here on! 🥰
