Selling 7 Pet ducks

Paul from Rolleston

Selling 7 domestic / pet ducks

I have 7 ducks that we need to rehome due to changes in circumstances.
We have had all 7 ducks from new born and they are all between 2 and 3 years old.

We have one male/drake and 6 females/ducks

1 male Indian runner duck
1 female Indian runner duck
2 female Indian runner / muscovy ducks (Cross)
2 female Khaki Campbell ducks
1 female Muscovy duck

All ducks are healthy and happy.
They live free range (in aviary at night)
They will not fly away, but the Muscovy ducks can all jump a 1 meter high fence if you do not clip the wings
They lay eggs in the spring and summer.
Egg sizes vary between very large and very small

Each breed of duck are related so breeding should be done with other ducks.

They eat grain all year around, layer pellets in the spring and summer.
They eat most human food scraps (Don't give them unhealthy stuff)
They love bananas. Yes, its true (:

They don't make too much noise, but they do quack when scared or hungry.

If you would like to know more then please contact me.

Looking to rehome as soon as practical.
Ducks will not be sold for eating or to anyone who will not look after them. And they must be homed somewhere that has space for them.

The ducks can be moved in boxes, but you will need a large car to fit them all in. Or more then one trip.

Please call or message me on 020 4087 5352

Price: $50

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
