Cute or sad

[Magnolia Ducks]

You may know I am down to a single duck, Mini, that I have been trying to find a new home or a friend. She has been screaming herself hoarse and not eating well from being lonely. Last night I have her a 12x12 mirror. She gave it the side eye and then the side head bob. This morning she was cuddled up with it giving her happy trill. She wouldn't go out to free range because her "friend" wouldn't come with her. She would start for the door and then run back and quack at the mirror like come on already. I have had to move the food and water closer to her "friend" so she will eat and drink. She hasn't screamed all day but won't go more than 3 feet from her friend. I didn't think this would work on an adult duck.

Both cute and sad. But if she is happy for now then you have found a good temporary solution. At least she isn’t screaming.

I agree, it's both. I hope you can find a friend for her soon. Good luck.

Did you get the fencing ordered? I am happy Mini is happy with her new friend. Bless her heart at least it’s keeping her safe for now.

Good luck finding a friend for her

I am ordering the fence tomorrow. I have a trip planned for a friend's 60 b day and will order some lings after I return. Don't have anyone to care for the lings while I am gone. If I can keep her somewhat content for a while, I will have an outside run and some babies. About a month away.

I know. Everyone that either wants her or has adult ducks are in another state. Thanks for the interest. I used to live in Philly and I miss it.

Philly is great! I hope she is okay with the mirror till you get ten lings
