no not really. She quacks occasionally but I guess that's something all ducks do. The people down the street have surely noticed that there is no duck in their pond by now and still haven't come looking for her. Actually they have dismantled the entire pump and there is almost no water in the pond now. My husband went over there just before they moved in to check out what kind of filter they had and he noticed it was badly clogged. So he took it apart, cleaned it and it was so powerful you could hear the waterfall from the street. Impressive. It's off now though, like I said, you can see it isn't running. Now If THEY want to come and get Daisy in the next week or two well there isn't a whole lot I can do about that except maybe ask them to purchase the food I bought her since I don't really need it yet, my chickens are still on starter feed. If they won't well they won't and I'm sure it won't go bad before the chicks are old enough to eat it. Methinks they'll just tell the old owners that the duck is gone and they don't know where it is. They didn't move in until a little over two weeks after the old family moved out after all, all sorts of things could have happened to her in that time.
I'm going to have a hard time not being annoyed if lady nextdoor to me tries to take her though. Especially if she's only going to dump her at the park on the other side of town. It would be different if she wanted to keep her as a pet, hey I'd be OK with that. I told her this afternoon if Daisy is bothering her we will take care of that and the same with the chickens. I already promised not to keep a rooster who was going to be crowing, though I could I think, I just don't want to bother anyone.
