Hello! This morning I went to a local park and found these 3 super friendly ducks that had been dumped off there, I was able to bring them home by simply shaking the food cup I had until they followed me back to my car. I took them in because they aren't really safe out in the wild, especially considering they can't fly yet, and they are very friendly!! I believe there is 1 drake and 2 girls, but they could all 3 end up being girls. There is definitely at least 2 girls, the 2 girls both seem to be somewhat of lap ducks, and don't mind being pet. The one that I believe is a drake doesn't really like being touched.




They are adorable ducks, I would keep them but my town has a limit of 4 fowl, and I already have 4. I would love to find them an amazing home!!!!

I've been messaging one person who was interested in the duckling, says he has 4 other Muscovy right now and is just an animal lover with lots of pets. He seems pretty interested in these guys so hopefully he will be able to give them a great home! If all goes well I'll be bringing them over to him tomorrow! He said unfortunately he has to put one of his dogs down tomorrow morning, so hopefully these guys will cheer him up!

Your a great person for rescuing Gizmo and these three ducks.
 
So sad someone would dump those sweet babies out.
I think since there are so many feral muscovy here people find ducklings without a mom around and try to do the right thing by raising them but they just don't have the space to have ducks, and they also think they are wild ducks and don't know they are invasive domestic ducks, so they put them back out into the wild. I did the same thing awhile back before I lived in a house with a yard. I still wonder about those ducks they were my first, only one of those originals that I still have is Puffin.

I forgot you already have a home for them. Who ever had these ducks must have put sometime into them for the girls to be so friendly. Those noises just melt my heart. And you did just get a new scovy duckling?
I just dropped them off with their new family!! We met halfway because it was over a 2 hour drive, but their entire family came with to pick them up, and as I was driving away I saw them each take a duck out of the box and put it on their lap during the drive 🤣 i think they will be very loved !!
