Family's Farm Becomes Duck Paradise
20 Oct
Summary
- Couple helped a mother duck hatch one miracle duckling after multiple failed attempts.
- They adopted four domestic ducklings rejected by the mother duck.
- The family is moving to a hobby farm to continue their animal sanctuary.
Monica and Dima Abramov's lives have been transformed by ducks, turning their property into an animal haven. Their journey began when they noticed a mother duck, Moira, struggling on their land.
After several unsuccessful attempts to help Moira, including acquiring ducklings from a store that she rejected, the couple obtained fertile eggs from a hatchery. After 34 days, Moira finally hatched one duckling, Miri, which they call a miracle.
Their animal family grew with four white Pekin ducks, who were adopted after Moira rejected them. The family, documenting their experiences on social media, learned extensively from followers about duck care.
The Abramovs are preparing to move to a larger acreage property to establish a hobby farm. While their four Pekin ducks will relocate, they plan to leave the wild ducks in their natural habitat, though they are contemplating bringing Buddy, a duck who bonded with Dima, with them.
Monica notes that their animal encounters have profoundly changed their perspective, fostering a love for storytelling and a desire to help others. Their journey has inspired them to volunteer at the Humane Society and embrace a future centered around a farm life.
