Baby duckling needing a home

Dee from Merrilands

Hi neighbour's,

I am currently raising a new born mallard, about 2 weeks old. We rescued 5 of them that were just wandering down a road with no mama to be found, sadly only 1 survived. He is quite strong and is eating, drinking and seems healthy enough.

I am looking for someone with a homestead / already has backyard ducks or has experience to take him in.. he needs to be kept warm and fed appropriate duckling food.

I don't have the space or facilities to keep raising him as he grows. He needs special care whilst still young and as he has no mum he won't be waterproof for a long time yet.

If anyone knows of someone experienced in caring for little duckies and has the facilities to raise him please reach out.

My contact number is 0204 134 8842

Thank you 🙏

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
