Iam sorry its a sin, it realy is

Thank you SO MUCH for this information

 

[Miss Lydia]

A run completely enclosed top bottom sides is the only way to keep them safe and only let them out when you can watch them.
I hope you start looking for a few friends for your lone duck now she’s going to be lonely.

Looks like a fox to me. Sadly it will return. Be on the lookout. Sorry for your loss.

OMG,..I CANNOT TAKE ANYMORE,..I CHECK THEM EVERY 15-20 MINUTES AND I TOOK A PHONE CALL BECAUSE MY 96YR OLD DAD WAS TAKEN BY AMBULANCE TO THE HOSPITAL WITH PNEUMONIA, MILD HEART ATTACK AND KIDNEY CANCER. I LOOKED OUT AND SEEN SOME STRANGE TRACKS IN THE SNOW THAT WENT FROM THE POOL WHICH IS 3FT FROM MY BACK DOOR TO THE FENCE SO THEY JUMP A 4FT FENCE, HARD TO SEE WHITE PEKIN FEATHERS AND NOT ALOT OF BLOOD,..I SCREAM AND CALLED FOR HER AND FOUND STRANGE FEET PRINTS, HE MIGHT OF HAD ANOTHER BUT MY GIRLS HEAD WAS GONE AND BACK FILET OPEN,..WINNIE JUST SWIMMING IN THE WATER ..I AM HAVING A BREAKDOWN AS I WRITE. I WENT TO THE LOCAL COMMUNITY COLLEGE FOR ALMOST 6 YRS TO FEED HER THEN TOOK HER SO SHE COULD HAVE HER BABIES AND BE SAFE AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENS,..I HAVE FAILED HER AND THE FAMILY NO ONE ELSE UNDERSTANDS THESE HORRIBLE OUTBURSTS OR CRYING.

She follows me everywhere and I raised her from the shell with her brother so for now she can play in the bathtub. I tried to put her in the box they used to sleep in when they were younger but she kept jumping out even though it was covered with a blanket, it used to work so even though I felt terrible she slept on the enclosed back porch with all her toys and stuffed animals and then this morning I opened the door and she has spent the day with me literally inches from me, she has been imprinted on me since I hatched her and her brother Roxy that got taken almost 2wks ago. My dog ran through their run that is enclosed and I have been waiting for some help to fix it and enforce taller fencing around the pool. Until then she don't mind being inside but I know they don't like to be alone, it is killing me,....

 

[Miss Lydia]

I know it’s killing you they were an are your babies

This pain is horrible and seeing all those tracks shows you what we are up against my heart has been broken when my cats and dogs and rabbits has passed away but knowing how violently my babies were tore apart, find Shorty's body with no head made me feel like the worst failure as a duck mama when I was researching and buying all this stuff and I have the wind knocked out of me and this beautiful family has been ripped apart literally and I feel like hell,.....

 

[Miss Lydia]

You are not a failure. I can tell you and many many more also that when one of ours is killed we all feel like failures and we let them down. It’s so heartbreaking. Just know we are here for you and many of us know exactly how you are feeling
