Seamus McGillicuddy Posted July 26, 2023 Posted July 26, 2023 Some great stuff here. Unfortunately, one of the saddest scenes I ever laid eyes on occurred some time back just a few blocks from my house. They say that ducks mate for life. Smack in the middle of an intersection lay what was left of a male mallard, clearly the victim of a pedestrian knock down, dead as a door nail. On one corner stood the widow staring at was left of her Old Man and I swear she had a look on her face as devastated and forlorn as any person I ever saw. I nearly cried she look so sad. Never forgot it. Now, back to our regularly scheduled humorous poultry thread. Seamus

Seamus I can tell you for a fact that Muscovy drakes will mate with any female that isn't fast enough to get away from them. Don't know about Mallards though.
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted July 31, 2023 Posted July 31, 2023 Are we letting ALPO down? Almost 4 days since the last Duck hit the thread!
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted August 7, 2023 Posted August 7, 2023 It's been a week and NO DUCKS were posted!
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted August 15, 2023 Posted August 15, 2023 Alpo's duck thread seems to be lagging, SO:
Alpo Posted August 16, 2023 Author Posted August 16, 2023 The piece of sidewalk showing between the tree and the duck's neck - it's in the perfect spot. It makes the duck look like he's buck toothed.
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted September 2, 2023 Posted September 2, 2023 PAGE 4 !?!? OK This is not Alpo's Cat thread. It's his DUCK Thread!!
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted September 5, 2023 Posted September 5, 2023 Didn't book his migration flight south early enough this year.

Alpo Posted September 6, 2023 Author Posted September 6, 2023 You definitely should rent that, instead of buying it. We know that it both floats and flies, and since it's a girl duck we can assume that it fornicates.
Possum Stu Posted September 6, 2023 Posted September 6, 2023 I rescued this little guy in spring 2020. He was lost and was getting beat up by other ducks. Sadly he passed away a few days later but while we had him he was a great relief from the stress of that dark time. He’d climb right into my hand and fall asleep. I had other ducks in around 2007-2008 too- they were a lot of fun. No snails, slugs, or earwigs in the backyard while the ducks were there!
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted September 17, 2023 Posted September 17, 2023 Page 6! We're letting Alpo down!
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted September 22, 2023 Posted September 22, 2023 Well, ALPO's wish for a DUCK THREAD seems to have run it's course, so what's next for the lad? Budgies? Chickens? Goats? Humming Birds? Squirrels? Hogs? Deer? Moose? Turkeys? Suggestions are solicited. Meanwhile, here's a Platypus.
