Whatever happened to Emily




After her period of being broody, Emily went into moult. This is another period when ducks don't lay well but the moult has now finished so we are hoping for laying to start soon.

Something very strange has happened though, she has lost her soft honey beige and has become one of the brown ducks. Now, I don't know if this happens naturally and she will pale down with time, or she wants to be one of the gang.

The picture is a before and after.
