This afternoon they will come back inside! And if it needs firecrackers i will throw firecrackers at them! I have lost all my fingernails overnight!This is the only way I'd keep ducks. Lol they seem to be content there. Wish them luck, and go back inside!
They have ignored the »come and eat« call as well as the »all ducks go to bed« call yesterday, but i have already announced to my customer that i will need a break between 4 and 5pm this afternoon to drive my ducks off the pond. - Lot's of smiling faces and requests for a video…
I lived in Texas for 10 years and have actually tried a lasso, but other than entangling myself i am pretty bad in catching anything. I will first start with a rope with attached "flags" and if that doesn't help, firecrackers...Oh well just read the new post, not hungry... hmmm.
With 36 ducks, sooner or later the easy pickins' food will be gone.
How good are you with a lasso?
That is actually a very good idea: I will buy myself a remote controlled model-ship! That will for sure scare them out of the pond…
I actually have no help, but will try to handle the rope by myself, attaching something heavy and throw that over the pond, then moving the rope forward step by step on both sides.
Make sure you buy a captain’s hat as well
Below is the video from this morning, you can see that there are a lot of trees and shrubs around the pond, but the ducks usually swim to the other side of the pond when i am standing at the edge, so i can fence off about ½ in the beginning and then pull the rope towards them. And i have a floating rope! Don't remember why i bought it, but it floats.
