I don't think they take chickens. It's mostly wild animals but they have some ducks. She thought female but they're so busy. She was carrying around a baby squirrel while trying to help us and answer the phone.
I'm going to try to get a video or two of its sounds. I let it out of the run most evenings for 30-40 minutes while I sit with it. I'm in and out most days talking to it and of course cleaning up its messy water pans! It's not totally alone. If I can't find anyone near me to take it would...
It seems to make both types of quacks. Mostly soft whispery when I talk to it, but then it quacks a little too. The louder quacks are when I walk away or it's alone, which unfortunately is most of the time.
I found this duck at a rural boat ramp this week and couldn't just leave it. People said it had been there about month! It's very friendly but I can't keep it. It has cute orange feet with black "toes". Willing to travel up to 2 hours to take to a good new home. It's very lonely and needs friends.

It loved having fresh water to dunk it's head in! It ate the cornmeal mash with peas last night and this morning. I picked up Dumor duck food crumbles at Tractor Supply today and it immediately started eating that. It's much quieter and less active today. What an ordeal! I am actually sitting...
I am in Beaufort County North Carolina and have rescued a duck. I have no experience with ducks but it seems thin. Very friendly . It was left at a boat ramp. Anyone near me who can help? I don't want to keep it.
Washington, Beaufort County. Eastern coast so not close to Charlotte. I assume drake since it was dumped. I have no experience with ducks. How do I tell sex?
I'm trying to post something.
I have the duck! Now what? LOL I was able to grab it. It's starving. It literally jumped in my lap feeding it some bread.
I have it where I kept my chickens so it's safe but very thin.
I can get some food tomorrow. I have corn, cornmeal and peas cooked into a mash but it's scared now. And a...
