Not a chicken but a swan does it still count?

Her name is Marry, she has long since passed but i loved her!


This is the whole family! Marry and Joe! A mute swan and a trumpet!

So beautiful! I especially like Joe. Are swans fairly nice to people/other animals? For instance, could swans live on a pond with ducks?

Ehhh my swans were very protective and tended to kill or chase off ducks but if they were raised together it might work. Actually Joe was killed by some of his babies who wanted his pond.

Goodness, I didn't realize they were so territorial! Very beautiful though!

Aww, bummer. I kind of thought they might be, but I thought Id ask anyway. Poor Joe.
