Some 'kind' person has left what we believe to be a khaki Campbell drake outside our front door this morning (probably my fault for leaving a dog cage there ::))
We've built a quick run, have a paddling pool and house for him and have a lady mallard ready to keep him company.....long story involving kids finding a newly hatched one in the summer!
Any tips folks? (not orange sauce recipes please) ;)

Did they actually leave him IN the dog cage?
Bizarre!
You already know how to look after him though, and the ones from Lanark last week should all be females, so...... :innocent:

KCs are VERY umm
loving sex crazed :roflanim: So for goodness sake either give him to someone with lots of ducks (female ones) or get the kids another female one each. One drake to 5 ducks is just about enough. Although a few more girls would make his life (and theirs) much more enjoyable.
