Dumped duck - help?

Hi! Can I trust that he'll be going to a good home if I use Craigslist?

I agree with @DobieLover she has some good advice.

I’m likely just north of you. So I’m gonna reach out to a few of the Denton area High Schools FFA program’s….. I suggest you do the same as well.

FYI…. I just spread the news and gave a link to your thread specifically about the Drake….

a) my personal FB-land page
b) local small town near Denton group, lots of farmers
c) DFW unschooled/homeschooler group

Thank you! I think I found someone who lives in the country just an hour away. I'll have catch the duck now... hopefully I manage to.

I use a rubber net to catch mine and it works really well as they do not get tangled in it.

Do you suggest I do the same? I don't have a rubber net but I'll google it.

If nothing else do the old childhood bird catching trick. You need a sturdy box and a stick with some cord or rope on it. Prop the box up on one side and put the duck's feed under it. When the duck enters to eat put the rope. It may take a feeding or too to get the duck used to the box and stick but it works. I think I have scars from catching cardinals to play with as a kid. Those red boys can bite.

Just a touch of childhood engineering.
