We love calling ourselves our pets' 'Moms'. Although we may not have physically birthed them, we might as well have with all of the money, time, and energy we put into them (which we, of course, receive lots of cuddles and unconditional love as payment, so it is 100% worth it). However, it's a bit different when you have a duckling as a pet, and this is because ducklings "imprint" on the first thing they see, and whatever that is, it becomes its mother. So when a kindhearted hooman found an abandoned egg and decided to hatch it on his own, the adorable duckling that came out literally believed that he was his mother.
Meet 'Spike', the delightful duckling that is growing up with his hooman 'mother' and loving every second of it. Imagine having a tiny duckling following you around all the time - it sounds like fluffy, feathery heaven to us. Scroll to see the wholesome video below of this fluffy family and have a great week!

Just imagine having this tiny little ball of fluff following you around everywhere, it must be the cutest thing ever. Although, we're sure it's not all rainbows and butterflies as every child, no matter how pawsitively adorable, is still a lot of work.
We hatched eggs when we were in 1st grade, although they were chicken eggs. We had an incubator in the middle of the classroom, and we patiently waited for them to hatch, each day getting more and more excited. When they finally did, it was the cutest thing ever!
