Hi that would be great if you could share it with your friends- we've received some great distant offers, but we'd really like to find somewhere closer to Gainesville. Ocala would be lovely :)
Thanks!

I made this video to help my duck get adopted and it's gotten very popular. We've gotten an outpouring of support and kindness, but we still haven't found the perfect home for McIntosh's particular needs, so I'm posting it here since I know there's so many duck lovers!
Yesterday we got phone...
Thanks Miss Lydia, I am glad that you liked it :) I took your advice and posted in that link. We are moving to Hawaii and they forbid the entrance of ducks, otherwise we would fly him out there with us. I've never had to put an animal up for adoption before so I'm not sure what to expect in...
Please check out this video we made!
Hello everyone,
My boyfriend and I are looking for a new home for our beloved 2 yr old Muscovy drake named McIntosh. We live in Gainesville, FL but we're moving to Hawaii very soon, which is coincidentally the only state that forbids the entrance of ducks...
Hi everyone!!
I have to find a new home for my pet muscovy drake McIntosh, so I worked really hard to make a fun video compilation of his life in order to improve his chances of finding a good home. Please check it out and share with anyone who might be interested! I hope you enjoy it...

Hi there!
Yes he did make it and is doing fine, I am happy to report :) The string wasn't a very durable plastic so he must have digested it, it was never found in his duckpoo, It was kind of like a tough version of the plastic that walmart bags are made of. I don't remember exactly what I did...
Can you post a picture of him/her from the side showing the thickness of the legs and body length? The small feet makes me think its a hen, but if the body is very long then it could be a drake. Also that looks like the beginning of some large caruncles on its face, a male quality. How old is s/he?
just guppies from the pet store
funny how he lost interest in hunting fish when he got older - i had guppies living in his kiddie pool for a couple weeks :)
In celebration of his recovery after his brush with death, I'd like to share some videos of my dear Muscovy drake McIntosh. I've had him since he hatched a year and a half ago :) I'll post some videos of him when he was younger after I find them.
Thank you for your warm wishes. Now that I figured out how to upload videos maybe I'll try to post some fun ones of him instead of sad ones. He really is a character, I used to take him to a park for walks and he would fly a couple of laps around the pond and come back and land next to me :)...
Thank you everyone so much for your help!!!
My boyfriend reported that he started improving while I was at the fish store getting charcoal. I crushed up the charcoal and a little epson salt and put it inside some cherry tomatoes anyway just in case - thank god he ate them or I would have had...

Hi hiddenflock,
Thank you for your reply! I checked him over but the way he is acting makes me think it is internal and systemic, like a toxin or a disease :/
I hope someone has some ideas. I just got off the phone with a vet that wanted $700 just to look at him! Outrageous!
Also, the duck...
