speedqueen Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 just wanted to share the news that my little old lady, Yang, passed away last night. she was my first duck along with her sister, Ying. Ying died a good few years ago as she has lots of problems including a broken/bent deformed leg (from birth) My old lady Yang was a Khaki Campbell, and she was 12 years old!!! I'm told this is a good age for a Khaki. My two indian runners April and May dont know where she's gone! They keep quacking in a low inquisitive tone? like they are calling for her. very sad she has had a lovely long and happy life, even if she did hate water! She would always run inside and hide when it rained and would only dip in the pond for about 3 minutes then quack to be lifted out, lazy girl! I have recently introduced them to my newest hen, puppy-chick (Mortisha to hubby and kids, cos she chirped the adams family theme tune when she was a chick!) after my other 3 hens attacked her. She's seems happy with the ducks, although they are a little wary of that beak! So very sad but also happy for a peaceful departure. She was a lovely old girl.
