How much bigger?

My duckling is a black Swedish.

He mesures from base of the neck to base of the tail 7 inches.

Will he get much bigger than that?

I have one female black Swedish duck, Quackers.

She is the world to me and I don't know what I would do without her.

I also have a hamster, 20 gallon fish tank, and two cats.

I am clearly an animal lover and that will NEVER change.

I am sorry if I step on your toes but I've noticed you are very impatient on the threads you make.....you need to give people a little more time to respond to you.

Sorry if I seem impatient.

I only keep posting in my own threads so it stays at the top of the list.

If it doesn't I'm scared no one will reply!

Once again I am sorry if I upset you.

 

How do I weigh him?

Well duh. 

Thanks captain obvious!tongue.png

(Not being offensive in any way just a joke.)

I mean I already tryed the scale and he is too small to register.

Any other ways?

You stand on a scale and weigh yourself;  then you stand on the scale holding your duck.  Subtract *your* weight from the combined weight and then you will know how much your duck weighs.  Simple wink.png

 

If its too small to register on the scale, use cooking weighing scales
