Oh I don't think the dogs would be too happy if I bought home DuckaDucka Chibi! i'm at work all night so he's keeping me company while I care for him, and considering Oscar is a labrador retriever somehow i don't think ducks are his favorite pets! and if word got out he had one...oh my the scandal!

My Golden Retriever Harvey picked up a little fledgeling once. Just its head sticking out of the front of his mouth!
Eventually managed to get him to let the poor bedraggled, saliva-coated thing go! Otherwise totally unharmed and looking very bemused wondering," why me!? "
Talk about a soft palette!
(and I have seen Harvey easily crack a peach stone with his teeth!)
It was like a scene with Sylvester, Tweety-Pie and me as Grannie!
lol! you as granny! that's a great image! nice floral dress, rolling pin and some serious squinty eyes would look a treat as you chased harvey around trying to pluck a lucky duck from his mouth! ( I know what you mean about soft palette, i've seen oscar with wattle bird in his mouth and then he crack open marrow bones for izzy to get at the insides! strong jaws..bloody strong) and you know the wattle bird had the same 'why me' look as you described!
DuckaDucka is feeling a bit chirpy now, he's starting to get very active and keeps getting out of his box and running at me! he won't sit still! but it's still way to cold to let him outside now!......crap...he just fell of the bench 'cos I wasn't watching! some carer I am!

oops lol am sure he's alright
Might be worth putting a cover over the box so he will settle. It will prolly be because of the lights.
(Obviously make sure there are breathing holes)
Duly noted and now fixed Chibi style! put a box lid diagonally across the current...larger...box so now he can't escape and the lights won't hurt his little eyes! he's very very active and just running around in ther chirping like there's no tomorrow! so he's healthy at least, and i did take some pics on my phone which i'll try and post tomorrow when i get home :-) I am a sad case aren't I!

Labs are Generally very accepting of new pets. A pet Duck might not be a bad thing. You have a pond or something in the Garden it can live in?
If not, try and see if there is an Animal Rescue doodad that can take him and raise him so he can be released.

Having helped lizards, mice and toads back into the wild I can only reiterate what others have said. Keep him warm and fed, then try to contact an animal centre. If this proves fruitless, DuckaDucka may have to become some sort of mascot for this website...

P.S. I demand pictures!!!

Alright alright due to popular demand I shall put up pics and inform you all of everyone's favorite Dakka mascot DuckaDucka when i get home from work today...after a sleep that is :-) I know the thread isn't as long but I feel that DuckaDucka may be more popular than awesome spider?

Agreed. See if a Mother duck will accept him. If not, take him to a shelter or make him a pet.
Odd for Ducks to be hatching in Autumn though... isn't it?

ha, that's awesome. I'd personally raise him and teach him to use a shotgun, then make a little shotgun for him and release him into a lake or something.
Give him some little pieces of bread and a a pool of water to diddle around in. He should be happy until you release him. I think.
What is it about animal threads that always brings out the ravening carnivore in some people. Fluffy animal = EEEAATT!! omnomnom
It seems to provide some sort of substitute for a primitive hunting instinct or something. Or a compensation for repressed masculinity which is perceived as only redeemable by shooting and roasting said fluffy.
not being a psychoanylist I can't be sure.
Maybe these posters are simply repressed Frenchmen or maybe they are labradors. Labs have to eat everything they possibly can!

I blame the animals myself. I mean, if they weren't made of meat, they'd be a lot safer. Silly evolutionary choice if you ask me.
