Our local farm store, Coastal, celebrates Spring every year with an event called “Chick Days” where they display rows and rows of baby chickens, ducks, turkeys, and many other foul. We just couldn’t pass up on the last 6 baby Mallards and brought them home on March 21st, 2006! They are: Jane, Lilly, Jasmine, Sweet Pea, Daisy, and Jake the Drake. They spend their days wondering the farm, searching for bugs, slugs and worms. If we don’t let them out of their cage by 9am, they become very agitated!
