My Pet Names (Mostly Ducks)

Enjoy :))

Ducks

I grew up with a flock of charming ducks.
(And I’m not responsible for all of these names.)

Artaxerxes 'Art' Earnest

My favorite, the firstborn - a drake with Mallard coloring and an earnest, endearing personality. He’s typically Art, but he’s unfortunately been called Arty McFarty before.

Comet Mango

Art’s large yet gentle sidekick - Comet is another drake and a Pekin with a mango colored beak.

Jemima 'Gem' Joy

A quirky Welsh Harlequin with whitish coloring and jewel-like speculum feathers.

Koko Yolk

A sociable female with chocolatey Khaki Campbell coloring and good laying.

Asteroid 'Aster'

A curious white layer.

Tigerlily Orange

An elusive white layer.

Shadow Knight

A fearless and independent iridescent black Cayuga lady.

Jesko

A very swift and tough Muscovy.

Rhubarb 'Ruby'

A mischievous, flying Muscovy.

Quail

Males - Archie, Butternut, Cectus, Sunflower
Females - Jasmine, Pansy

(Future) Geese

I’d love to get a pair of geese eventually - Adelaide “Laidy” & Nebuchadnezzar “Neb”/“Chad” or Archibald “Archie” (though I wouldn’t be surprised if some call him “Baldie”)
