Puddle Ducks!

Recommended Posts

Hi - we went to Stapeley Water gardens on Saturday in the Palms oasis there & fell in love with the little puddle ducks.

Now hubby wants a ducklu. :roll: But are these puddle ducks rare? Would they be alright in a ducklu or is it cruel? I haven't got a pond either would a paddling pool or an old tin bath or even a washing up bowl do as somewhere for them to splash in? Just wondered as hubby hasn't stopped going on about these little ducks.

We brought 2 call ducks on saturday and they are living in a eglu with 2 washing up bowls.I would like to give them more then that really but OH said he would sort it.We got a pair but im worried that in the spring he will be a little to much for her on her own.Dose any body have any suggestions on how l can deal with this is there a spray that l could put on her? I must say they are very interesting to watch.

Were the ducks for sale? or just on show? I didn't think the palms oasis had ducks?

(they certainly didn't on mothers day)

 

How much were they if they were for sale?

 

Ps I read this post mainly out of curiosity as My son goes to Puddle ducks for swimming lessons! we also want ducks once the Cube arrives and free's up one of the Eglu's!

We've got a pair too and have the same concerns as you, Tara. Don't know the answer yet. I don't think there's a spray - be handy if there was. We might have to make room for a couple more girlfriends for him, and keep him away from the chickens.
