[/caption]The ducks are so big now. T actually admitted that he likes them. I caught him up in the middle of the night checking on them because he thought he heard a predator. He went outside and saw two glowing eyes, but all ducks were safe in their pen.
Jack did have one scare. He was watching a movie with his grandmother and did not go to put the ducks in until 9 p.m. When he went outside he could not find them anywhere. He came back in in a panic. My Mother found him a flashlight and he finally located the ducks. They were fast asleep in their duck house and had apparently put themselves to bed. Crisis averted!!

We have seen them fly recently. Ducky (the mallard) flies out of the pool onto the ground. The Pekins flap their wings, but don't get far. We haven't clipped their flight feathers. They are very bonded to each other and do not go far from their pen so I don't think they will be flying off (unless of course under attack and then maybe they should be able to try and get away?)...
