Title: Wanted Drake/ Duck/Companion Sheffield/Derbyshire area
Post by: Deere on July 17, 2012, 08:11:43 pm

Hi,

Got home from Bakewell Market yesterday to find our white Drake dead  :( . 

First thoughts were that the older collie dog had decided that a bit of excitement was needed, although on closer inspection and the discovery of a dead pigeon in the garden makes us think that the killer came from the sky.

I have been told that there have been a few birds of prey flying over us and scaring the pigeons recently but didnt think they would tackle a duck?
We are certain there are not dog bites.

Any how what we are now after is another duck  :&>, doesnt really matter what color its just our brown (sorry not an expert on duck varieties!) duck needs a new friend to roam the farm rather than constantly walking up and down the chicken runs trying to get in with them!

I dont mind a trip out to fetch one as long as your not too far away and am willing to pay for it of course!

If you or anyone you know can help please get in touch,

Thanks in advance!

Tim  :sheep:
