lost-sheep Posted August 14, 2007 Author Share Posted August 14, 2007 i was also wondering if it was the sort of thing i could look after on my own because my mum and dad would want nothing to do with it!!! (THEY ARE CHICKEN LOVERS WHO ONLY WANT TO EAT DUCKS.... ) so i need to argue my case... something like.. "but dad they wont be tooo noisy and they wont take up much room and they would be very pretty!!" i'll keep working on it!!!... he he Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lost-sheep Posted August 14, 2007 Author Share Posted August 14, 2007 hmmmmm... i'll keep trying... it would also be good if i knew exactly what 2 get tho cos then they would be happy enough to let me get on with it!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caroline Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 ducks are noisier than chickens.... not sure of a quiet breed. We have Indian Runners and they do quack a fair amount but then I live in the sticks and people think it's a nice country noise so I'm lucky. Call ducks are apparently called 'Call' ducks for a reason too.... my neighbour has those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daj198 Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 I pestered my parents about Chickens. Showing them videos of battery hens and some being rescued through the BHWT did it! Hopefully we're going to get some ex-bats next month. I assume the same method is necessary to persuade parents to get ducks.... except I don't think you get battery duck farms...
