Baby duckling needing a home
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: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
