D.Schwartz Posted December 19 Report Share Posted December 19 I went to a duck farm in Long Island and bought a baby duck, he was 5hrs old. He weights less than a pound. He's the cutest thing alive I swear. I'm a bird lover so this is just an addition sort of, but i've always wanted a duck. This one has his wings clipped genetically and its going to be pure white when it growns up, funny thing their reach their full size in 7 weeks which crazy. They get bigger and bigger day by day. All he wants to do is sleep, eat, and bite my face. I basically saved his life, cause that farm mass produces ducks and after that they head for the slaughter house, which is very sad, also he costed 5 bucks, FIVE BUCKS, can u believe that a pack of cigerattes costs less than a baby duck.

Food wise, I bould 50lbs of "Starter" Duck food which ran me 7 bucks, so I'm good with that for about 2 years lol. No literally 50 lb for 7 dollars is that cheap or what. As far as what I'm going to do with it?, simple keep it.. Believe it or not these ducks are genetically domesticated, their not wild at all.. I'll have u know Wilson the duck cant sleep by himself, he has to sleep near me or be near me period, otherwise he starts whistleing through his nose(crying) cause he cant quack yet.. Potty Train??? the bad new is u cant, the good news is that its not big(their poop) and not that frequent... And They usually poop right after they eat so u can predict it..

somebitch Posted December 19 Report Share Posted December 19 haha. that's stupid. i mean cute story & i think it is wonderful that you saved the ducks life or whatever (i dont eat duck so i save ones life everyday) but come on, are u really gonna want a duck in 3 years, they cant be very intelligent so you wont be able to teach it anything. sounds like a cool idea but the reality is, cleaning up lots of turds.

I guess u can train it, i mean just not now since he is only like 5 days old, in the future I will try to potty train him.. As far as ducks being stupid??? Birds in general are smarter animals than dogs or cats, a duck can be as smart as you want him to be. He already acknowledges me, follows me around the house, starts crying when I leave. He actually only poops only on one side of the bed. He sleeps with me cause he starts screaming like a maniac if he's by himself at night for now. I'll post a pic hopefully later on Today.

sheendawg Posted December 21 Report Share Posted December 21 LMAO @ screaming like a maniac!! Saw the pics, I want one too!! I love birds just like you, I used to have a cockatoo named Fendi and all she did was SCREEEEEEECH and bite everyone in the house except for me! My next bird is gonna be a macaw, very expensive but you have to write them into your will because they live so long. I also had a red-tail boa named Big Worm *snicker*, and a big-ass Iguana named Spike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
