One of my peachicks just scared me to death. I was taking pictures of them and only had five in their brooder. Not good! Immediately I started looking around, but I wasn't hearing crying, which made me think that I was gonna find a dead chick, since they cry a lot when they are all alone. I got out my flashlight and started checking every corner. Finally found the little thing all curled up, quiet as can be and cold, under a bench. It's okay now, but I can tell you that a cover went on that brooder faster than anything.

Superglue, my man... superglue...

Better yet, gorilla glue!!!!

Oh no, lets not get guys together with birds and super glue. I can just see how that would end up. Bird STILL in hand, guy in the ER!

What made me laugh is that immediately there was incorrect info in that post. The very first thing that's in that article is a picture, with a caption saying they are examining a pekin duck. The duck pictured is clearly not a pekin.

But then the article mentions several times that the penises 'disappear'. Like, where are they going? Then the person who did the study is even quoted saying she thinks they might regrow them.

Um, drakes are BORN with penises. I sex ducklings, I have seen them. Why would they be born with them if they were just going to grow them in for mating season? The whole thing makes no sense, at all.

I know right! ! I was like disappear? What? So now we have disappearing and re growing and withering away penis s ? I'd hate to be a duck with all this penile confusion going on.
I even read where someone said ducks can undergo partial sex changes if there aren't any drake s available. WHAT!
Just because a female mounts another female doesn't mean they are growing penis s! I used to have two female bunnies that mounted each other all the time. That Don't mean one of them was having a sex change lol

The thing with life is seeing the humor in the situation. I am sure the guys are thinking how that would feel. They are really attached to those appendages! But if it is some other guy, it is funny. Like the kick someone in the nuts thing. I have done that, and the guy does not find it funny nor did i. But all the other guys find it hilarious. I think they are just so relieved its not them, they burst out laughing.

Yes! If it weren't for humor, I'd have been in the looney bin a loooong time ago.
