Are they fully grown now? Laying their own eggs? Or perhaps next spring. How are they doing?

They are indeed fully grown. Salvador and his wife have just left for Christmas with the family back in Galicia, so we're in charge. The run is very muddy, so it doesn't look very nice, but I'll try to get a picture of the flock.

The ducks share a large run with some chickens. There's a "dry half" for the chickens, and a "wet half" for the ducks. The ducks have a couple of old garden ponds to swim in, but I'm afraid that the whole of the "wet half" is also the "incredibly muddy half" at the moment.
The whole flock consists of the 7 successful ducklings from earlier this year plus 2 drakes that escaped the fox attack.

You weren't exaggerating about the mud! How lovely to see them again doing so well. Such a great outcome from a disaster. Thank you very much for showing us.
