Yep their body temp is too high for rabies.

I know, but maybe there is a Blanca Duck version out there…

Star-Trek fan? - DS9 especially? - Whenever i see Mr. Limpy standing upright like a walking stick i'm reminded to the Great Nagus' scepter…

It’s the cutest thing ever when they all stand at attention makes me think of a zipper.

Yes, some of the runner ducks have some kind of a zipper-line along their chest and bellies!

Got some more Chinese Stuff over the weekend:

I know @Pyxis that's not a duck on the duck sign, but i could not resist… I need to put that on the door to the duck-yard.
The other sign is already hanging over the bathroom's light switch!

Those are so cute where did you find them.

And i had a chance to examine Buffzilla's nest-mountain, she came out left a large green sausage behind then turned into a quacknado:

I used the opportunity to examine mount duck-nest, candle and count the eggs. Stopped counting at 20 eggs… All in different stages, about eight look like they are about to pip internally, though is is difficult to figure out at what stage an entire black egg (inside) is…

I have also received a dirt-cheap chinese incubator - a styro-foam box with a heating element, a thermostat and very confusing instructions:


No, i am not joining the hatching business! - I just want to make sure that when the inevitable happens and Buffzilla leaves the nest with a bunch of ducklings and abandons a bunch of "bad" eggs behind, that i can take over and maybe rescue the one or the other duckling. She has entirely black eggs as well as some in early development stage in her nest.

And i paid just $30 for that Styro-Foam box…

If i understand the instructions (below, make sure your bladder is empty!) correctly, i need to put water into the two plastic-bags and lay that bag flat at the bottom of the styro-foam box, place the heating element on top of it, attach the temperature sensor. Wrap the eggs in the quilt-material that came with the whole caboodle…
@Pyxis - Hey Hatchi-wan does that make any sense to incubate eggs on some kind of a temperature controlled water-bed?

Here's the »Semi-Automatic Incubator Operating Manual« - translated semi-automatically from Chinese to English by an AI:

Is this a trick

No, not a trick, but if think twice before you open the link. It is like walking into a dollar store, everything's just a dollar. Oh this looks nice, i can use a couple of these, that would look good in the living-room, always wated this,… In the end you pay over $50 and you still haven't not bought everything you like…
That web-site is like a glue trap for hill-billies!
