    It's Been More Than 6 Months

    Yeah, her brother Spaz is a monster, but I love him too. God showed me pets in the afterlife and I know it's 100% true. I miss Molly so much that I started smoking 4 packs of cigarettes a day and drinking a pint of Vodka in the evening to help me sleep.

    It's Been More Than 6 Months

    Thank you! But I miss her so much. I cry for her every day. I took her to an avian vet that was from Cornell and she said we are in uncharted territory, I feel as though I failed her and it's my fault. Her sibling - a drake is still going full speed. And he loves to attack me! I know...

    That's interesting. I don't know where I would go. I live in a town of less than 1000 people in the middle of Missouri, I can't drive at night due to vision issues, or in the winter due to ice.

    It's Been More Than 6 Months

    My Molly shown in the photo lived 14 1/2 years and she passed away on January 4th of this year. I have not been able to deal with this loss - time doesn't seem to matter. I don't know what to do. I suffer 24/7 and can't seem to accept that she's gone. She was born on July 18th, 2010...

    I Need to Buy 2 Mallard Hens This Spring.

    I live in Central, MO and there's a hatchery in IA, about 280 miles away. I would like to buy 2 female Mallard ducklings from them and am willing to make the drive to get them since I don't want the Post Office involved, but I don't know if I can trust a hatchery to provide healthy babies. My...

    Is it normal for a duck or chicken to have convulsions after they pass?

    Yes, I'll never be the same again. I don't know what to do.

    I never had children and she was the closest to having one.

    My sweet angel from heaven passed away after a pretty rapid decline. She did not appear in pain or distressed. She was vocal until the end. I will never be the same after this. I have her wrapped in cloth and plastic and she's in the freezer until the ground thaws so I can give her a proper...

    Mallard Turning Into Mini "Vulture".

    She lives indoors and has a window for sunlight and a heating pad that's always on for if she gets too cold. When she tucks her bill under wing to nap, her bald neck can't be seen.

    Oh yeah, her birthday was July 18, 2010 and she's been with me every day since hatching. I don't work, so I have always had the time to care for her and sing her little songs.

    Yes, she is the child I never had and a gift from heaven. Thank you!

    Makes sense since she is otherwise perfectly healthy and talks a ton.
