Soon to be Ducklings


Momma duck has risked crossing the busy intersection at Delaware & 11th street to lay her eggs in a planter box where I work for over a week now. As of Thursday 8/7/08 she had laid 10 but this morning (Friday 8/8/08) she had them mostly covered up and we couldn't see if there any new ones. She comes over daily at least twice a day to lay on her eggs. We have started feeding her and have left some water out for her. She comes from the big pond on 11th Street. From what I have read it should be about 30 days before they hatch. Check back on my BLOG for updates on our ducklings.
