✨🦆 Duck-date 🦆✨

Our lovely ducks have officially settled into their brand-new home, and they couldn’t be happier. With plenty of space to waddle, splash, and quack about, they’re already making themselves right at home. 🏡💦

Come along, say hello, and watch them enjoying their new little paradise! 🌿
