Its time for the duck of the Day everyone!
Todays duck is Porky Veronica. Shes a Silver Appleyard, they are known for their egg laying output, overall chill temper and their pretty feather coloring.
Porky is very fun to watch and play with. She loves dancing with her sister and shes not bad at trying to fly.
Can Porky get some love everyone?

Okay everyone, we're back! Its time for the duck of the Day.
Todays duck is Bidyia, she did not want her pictures taken this morning.
She is a Welsh Harlequin, as a breed they are known for their amazing feathers. Their calm and social behavior with ducks and other animals.
Bidyia is a spunky girl who like to dance and try to fly. She does pretty good actually. Shes still a baby so her feathers are still finding their colors so stay tuned for how she looks as she grows.
Can we send some love to Bidyia everyone?

Its some birds and bees.

Alright everyone, we appreciate you all so much. The duck are so happy about all of you too!
With that being said, we are doing some experiments in the kitchen. Some new styles of cheesecake will be available soon. Including pearl sugar cheesecake. If you dont know, look it up. And then we are getting local milk and cream.
We will be testing homemade cream cheese in our cheesecakes. Stay tuned over the next few days.

It is time for duck of the Day! Todays duck is Hashleigh. She is a black runner duck, much like Becky, just opposite sides of pigment. She has such a small weak honk. Its so cute. Her white spots are super cute too. Hoping she has them forever.
Show some love to Hashleigh everyone!
