Cindy, the duck who I found unable to walk with two injured legs, has just started hatching out her ducklings.. Helped along by Tish my domestic duck, who is convinced the ducklings as as much hers as Cindys!

Cindy's recovery has come along in leaps and bounds since I first found her, unable to walk and in a pretty miserable state.

However to ensure she continues to recover, I intend to keep her and the babies under my care, so she does not have to spend all day walking around to forage food for them and herself.

Hopefully the fact that Tish is co-mothering the wee ones will make this easier in some ways, as I am hoping I can let the wee group free range by day and know that Tish will ensure the group return to their housing by night.

I also have some orphaned ducklings to care for, including one who is very sick but battling along. Plus untold numbers of juvenilles needing dinner every night! So your help is definately still very much needed

Meanwhile to thank those people who have generously donated, here is the very first picture of Cindy, Tish and one of the bubs. This isnt even up on the facebook page yet!
