I contemplated having a few ducks. Have a spare bath, thought ducks (as you do). I recently met someone who very kindly gave me something. They have geese. I said "I'm thinking of having ducks". (Sharp intake of breath) "Oh, you don't want ducks or geese for that matter. We have had geese for years. They are dirty, they make everything muddy and they poo is not nice. No you, don't want ducks". SO WHY THE B.... H.... HAVE YOU BEEN KEEPING THEM FOR YEARS. Why do people do that! Say not to keep an animal even though they have kept them themselves for years.
