    Did my duck just have a seizure?

    We had a female runner that belonged to my neighbor that had that problem. There was a couple of days where she was lame and when in the pool would flip over.

    Stolen Horse--Man is BACK in jail!

    Change your voice mail or answering machine message to tell them when you can be reached, like hi this is... I am away from the phone right now, but I can be reached during this time today... So if they call again they at least know why they cannot get a hold of you.

    Southern California White Mallard pair

    I wish you were to, no one around here seems to think they are worth anything even just as cool pets. Most don't even believe me when I tell them they are mallards they think they are miss-shaped call ducks.
