ILoveQuack
Chirping
Hi all! I’m Ally, or well, ILoveQuack. I’m new here but have been lurking for the past several months without joining. Eventually seeing everyone’s cute little chicks and ducklings made me want some of my own...! I’m sure you know how that goes.
So back in August my fiancé was very agreeable to the idea of us having pet ducks, and I now have two Rouens which I ~think~ are male but might not be, lol. We do live in a house that’s owned by his family, but apparently his aunt who lives down the street is very unhappy about the ducks and wants them gone. As such I ended up joining BYC in order to rehome them.
I’m not sure if there’s any convincing his aunt about the ducks, as she’s not fond of birds in general... and everyone seems to believe that the ducks cannot survive the winter outside (which I have read otherwise here on BYC with proper housing) so therefore they are under the assumption the ducks must stay inside and will stink up the house. *sigh*
Anyway, I apologize for such a depressing introduction but I am happy to have finally joined the forums, even if it’s just so I can get my duck fix through the pictures of everyone else’s precious babies
