Zipster Im send you a video of mine that I made of the 15 or so ducks and swans I feed on a regular basis on the Connecticut river! Hope you enjoy sir- Sincerly ur freind on Facebook Gary K James :)
Wow I had no idea how quickly they go from looking like ducklings to looking like a duck! Do the pet shop know what you're doing with the goldfish or do they think you're just no good at keeping them alive? Cheers, Lesley
Awww! She is so cute, Sorry I haven't been on for awhile Zipster, but my grand son Passed away and I been down! But I still Love Ya! And Love all Your Vids!
She's growing into a fine young lady, Zip! It's amazing how they grow SO fast. But she's obviously had nothing but the best of care, and it shows.
You'll start getting clues in a few weeks, when she starts doing "wingercises," stretching and discovering those things called wings, that she's oblivious to now. I've watched them flapping and running across ponds, not sure what she'll do in a small space, but she'll figure it out.
MINNOWS IN A POND ! Yes, I just discovered Taffy will get her daily dose of fish if you release her into a distant Country Pond. Minnows GALORE !
The highway department as converted all the creeks to road drainage canals, hence, no life. Use GOOGLE EARTH to locate ponds. Try for the Norther n town parks, or the State Parks. Case the ponds first. If you can see lots of minnows near your feet at the shore, then THAT'S the place. Good Luck :o)
@tidemover I rescued a baby sparrow once and of course while growing up she thought of me as her mother. Once I released her she hung around for two years I know of... possibly longer. I no longer live in the same area but I am sure she remembers who took care of her. :)
I wonder when you let her go in the creek...You should take a fish with you and have her do 'her trick' in the creek and maybe she will stay and come visit her that way.
My mom raised some ducks and geese when I was a kid and I honestly don't remember them growing so darn fast. Must be all the TLC her daddy's giving her. :-)
No kidding? She eats fish? Somehow I thought she ate bugs and plants. Wow, she really is cute and growing like crazy. Whatever you're doing, keep it up! :)
Thanks for the update!! Wasn't that sweet of Jolene Sugarbaker to give you and Taffy a shout out?? I told her on facebook that she should do a colab with LM since they both know their way around trailer park kitchens Hope y'all would consider it. It would be a hoot to see my two favorite TPQ's cook together
Zipster, the time is approaching where you will have to let Taffy "spread her wings." We hope you have done your job as her parent, and she will do well. Thanks for sharing.
BEAN SPROUTS ! Since you can't find any minnows in the creek, perhaps introducing Taffy to Vegetation is in order. And when she's ready to fly, I guess she'll figure out everything on her own.
i feel like she needs practice finding the fishies in water that has fishy hiding places... i love taffy so much, you're pretty fab for taking care of her.
Aww...you have such a kind spirit...love you Zippy!!
