Baxter is shy, but enthusiastic about life!
His special pool, his friend and fellow duck, Rudy, and green peas of course!
Baxter is a three-year-old male duck who is blind. He was rescued in upstate New York as a baby, when his parents were trying to kill him because he was born without eyes. He was put in a chicken coop and was very lonely with the chickens (just think of how confused he must have been!). Beyoncé and Blue were brought in for company, but the coop became too crowded as they grew. The trio was then surrendered to an animal shelter, and then transferred to Farm Sanctuary where they had been living. Farm Sanctuary asked if we could help them, and we happily obliged.
