I was screwing off here before lunch when I was summoned.
“KEVIN!! We need you! Bring a box!”
Outside the front door was 7 baby ducks. Nearest water is 2-300 yards away.
Momma nowhere to be found, and front door is 25 feet from a busy road.
Anyway, after an hour or so later, I guess I have 5 new pets. (Still looking for the others.)
Train them to be messenger birds and you have a new help desk ticketing system.
Awesome! We raised some ducks a couple years back in our suburban back yard. Pretty crazy experience. We went through a lot of water constantly refilling those kiddie pools for them to swim around in.
It was NOT fun trying to keep them over winter. But they will eventually give you some eggs for all the mess they make.
Unfortunately, we lost one. It’s name was Uno.
We had a tiny funeral.
My favorite part of this post:
"I was screwing off here before lunch…’
I love that you OWN IT.
If anyone would like to know.
Ducks poop a LOT.
-100 for the visual.
