I love my ducks.
(Fish and Chips 10 month old boys 1 indian runner and 1 mallard) and
(Cheese and Quackers 6 month old breeding pair Welsh Magpies)
Unfortunately my daughter was in an unhealthy situation at school and we have to move. Our new city ordinance doesn't allow ducks at all.
I am...
God I wish - however, Cheese and Quackers were the attempt at an even ratio - as Chips was starting to stack on Fish and we thought girls would make them better.. I have molested enough ducklings to know i am not to be trusted sexing a duck.
We had the ducks inside until they were full grown. ... They still come inside for storms.
The other day we had a doozy of a storm.. Sideways rain, thunder.. lightning .. it was very very frighting.
Anyway I was out of the house when the storm hit.. I made my husband drop me off at home...
The two pairs (Fish and Chips, and Cheese and Quackers) are fully bonded to each other Fish and Chips are inseparable and You'll not see Cheese without Quackers. So I don't think getting rid of one would be emotionally beneficial to the other duck.
I also never thought I would say the words...
It's great ... my real name is actually Royale - I hated it for the first 30 odd years of my life.. but once in a while it works as a good punny screen name.
Fish is an Indian Runner (white with a brown sports bra) Chips is a Mallard I think, we thought Campbell but his head is growing in green.
Cheese and Quackers are Magpies - Cheese is my profile pic.. and honestly my favorite (don't tell the others) and... ironically.. the only girl I think.
YES! We call it the 'sex feather" Chips has a set of three prominent ones - Fish had a couple but then they straightened out for awhile, now they are coming back.. My daughter is convinced Fish is Transgender and we should quit trying to attach pronouns.. but honestly - that makes me very...
And if I have to rehome *ugly cries* Is there a safe and loving way to find good people who are as nuts as I am? Like i know people who want them.. but they just don't have me confident the ducks won't get eaten by predators, or get the love they need.
So... We have 4 ducks - Fish and Chips and the newbies Cheese and Quackers.
Fish and Chips are 6 months old and Cheese and Quackers are 3 months old.
Today, my daughter and I were sitting outside enjoying the weather and playing with the ducks. April (my daughter) picked up Chips and set...
I have a male runner, and a male Campbell. They are 4 months old. I didn't find out until their tail feathers curled that they are both males. They LOVE to chase the dogs. LOVE it. It's like their favorite pastime. One of my dogs likes to be chased, so it works out, they mainly chase her...
