Duck Article Brainstorm Session!

[WannaBeHillBilly]

Ducks liking something is a poor indicator of what is good for them. Domestic ducks are evolutionary testaments to their keepers, not themselves. Some of ducks favorite things are things that could kill them. They love eating nails, string and panty hose. They are absolutely fascinated whenever I use the chop saw. They love hanging around and under my riding mower. And yes, the worse the water is the more they are attracted to it. Just don't confuse "ducks need clean drinking water", with "ducks want clean drinking water"...

Just as spoiled as we humans: Fast food, fried food, sugary drinks, bungee-jumping with or without rope…

I now manage to avoid all the things you listed (for the most part - I do get the occasional Taco Bell) But I don't get to apply for sainthood because I am quite addicted to Moose Tracks!!! Eat it every day Ok, now I have to change my Avatar...

And talk about us silly humans: These Moose tracks say there is 30% less fat per serving (25% for the chocolate)... Regular moose tracks weigh 89g / serving and these weigh 81g... There is about 9% less ice cream / serving!!! I think that's cheating... Yet I obediently serve 81g of the reduced fat ice cream and 89g of the normal ice cream. Never claimed I was smart

Man! Don't give me ideas! Moose Tracks - never heart of that before. Sounds delicious! I haven't seen it in any store here in WV. I just cured my addiction to Ben and Jerry's…

Several brands have it... These are "Albertson's store brand." To be "Moose Tracks", it has to have Denali's Fudge and cup combination.... Their fudge band has the best creamy, with just a bit of sugar grit, consistency and flavor. Well, off to work now

OK, I know I posted this a little over a week ago, but I just stumbled across this picture of my Chocolate Runner Dove showing off her lack of survival skills:

You can't make this stuff up...

So there is a BYC article writing contest going and I was thinking there aren't that many duck articles compared to chicken articles. What are the duck topics and questions asked all the time on here that could use a good article? Duck people, I encourage you all to write a duck article! Help me choose a topic.

I don't know if this has been mentioned yet or not, but how about one to get newbies started. Something with suggestions on type of food, waterers, feed dishes, heat source, brooder, etc.
