Thank you so much smile.png good to know I'm not the only klutz! tongue.png

Poor ducky. Don't feel too bad, we all make mistakes. If he can swim he'll probably be alright. If you haven't though of a name, what about Nemo? In the film he had a dodgy fin, your duck has a bad leg. Perfect name wink.png

Slave to 8 birds, more on the way!

Nine beautiful Runners, four beautiful Buffs, thousands of beautiful memories and counting.

 

Looking for ducks?  Please consider adopting rescued ducks.  There are many places and people who do rescues, but we are not allowed to post the links due to BYC regs.  So fire up your web browsers and find some sweet, grateful duckies.
