Live pinatas

Duckies are so cute!

We are raising them for the county fair as a 4H project..

Note the we, I have learned that 4H is a pay back thing. I was in it for years, and had no clue what my father sacrificed to help me until my own children are involved.  We raise the animals together…meaning I raise them, yell around at kids to be responsible, and then they take in a buck load of cash from the fair when they sell them in auction!!

Back to how cute they are though.

They are balls of fluff that beep and honk and waddle. They are too cute when they get to swim and do the duck dives in their little pool.

They are not so cute when they made themselves live piñata’s at 6am and I need to be at work! Daily routine, check the babies feed them change the litter every morning and evening.  Somehow over the course of the night they shredded the litter paper, added the water from the bathing pool & covered each other! They where literally live piñatas!  I could not help but laugh very hard at them.  They all needed bathed and then new litter added and I was only a few minutes late. It was a great start to the day, because how can you stay mad about fluffy helpless, confused animals??? 

They are now living in a barn yard and not showing their creative art side anymore. Now they are just plain funny because they look confused all the time and still think I am the mommy..
