I have 2 ducks, one can be carried around no problem, the other kicks her feet like crazy and those little toes are SHARP. Is there a trick to carrying her so she will stay calm and not rip my arm to shreds?


And a couple pictures of them because they're too cute not to share ;)
 
My buff duckling is the best there is at being carried. She just hangs there, feet dangling, head up. My mallard is kicking and flapping her itty bitty winglets.

I just point feet away from me. If carrying just one, I will put my hand under their feet so they feet have pressure on them.

Funny mine are the opposite my Rouen/mallard (don't know which yet, and I'm getting conflicting opinions) is perfect and my buff is the spaz lol I will have to just start pointing feet away, I try supporting her feet and it seems to almost make it worse.
