I have a Male named indie, he's my baby!, i'm so sorry for your loss i hope that your swedish duck and Indie are healthy and happy where they are now
I hope so, too. They were my favorites but Indie was the real gem. She'd come up to me, full of sass, and bob her head while hissing at me until I gave her some dog food. She managed to bring Clyde around so he could be more social--actually, probably so she could get more dog food.
These birds are just so intelligent. Indie actually would fly and if she started leaving the yard, she'd turn and come back. It was a sigh to see.
