New mate for my duck!

Shellyann36 @Shellyann36 (11385) • United States 22 Dec 08

We have had our Pekin duck Daisy for since Easter. Her sister was killed by something so Daisy was left all alone for quite some time. We became really good friends and family with here. She is more of a pet than a work animal....

health4uandpets We have 2 Pekin Ducks - Alli and Alf. They came to us as rescues because someone was just going to leave them to fend for themselves. Alf loves Alli more than anything. He is constantly by her, protecting her and when she wanders off with the other ducks he...

Max was 11 years old in July when he had to be put down, it still breaks my heart that we couldn't afford the surgery to attempt to fix him, even if there just was a 35% chance for him to make it (and that was if he was a LOT...

health4uandpets My best advice is to just get another dog and not look for the qualities of Max. We had 2 rotties, Taz and Storm who have both passed away - 9 1/2 and 11 1/2 respectively. We now have two dogs (from the humane society) who amazing have Taz and Storm's...

health4uandpets You might want to call some local schools and donate them - if you give them the entire set up it's great for kids to watch them and learn. Also, a local humane society or reptile rescue will take them

How many of you will buy items from "used" stores?

hockeygal4ever @hockeygal4ever (10021) • United States 7 Jan 07

I know a lot of people refuse to purchase items from used stores. I personally don't see anything wrong with buying something at a fraction of the cost, often never used or gently used and saving some money. I do have my things...

health4uandpets I really don't shop at used item stores EXCEPT for the Army Surplus Store. Instead of paying $30 for a pair of stiff BDU's, you can get a used pair for $10 and they are already broken in. I also got a pair of boots for $25 when they retail for $75. Now my...

Who is the best rapper ever?

LoYaL132 @LoYaL132 (335) • Netherlands 19 Dec 06

What do you think about who the best rapper ever is? Is it tupac, eminem, snoop dogg, 50 cent, the game or...? I think it's tupac because even if he died 10 years his music still lives on. Tell me what you think

health4uandpets I really like Eminem, Snoop and 50 cent. Personally I don't care for Tupac (sorry) but I just don't like his music. I think the people in charge of his account are just very good marketers and shouldn't keep earning on him.

I just read an article that said a duck's quack does not echo. Does anyone know if this is true? if it is true, why doesn't it echo? Weird.

health4uandpets I read it does not echo and from what I can tell our ducks don't echo. The boys are very quiet almost chirping like but the girls are very loud and quack all day long. You can definitely tell the girls because they are bold and loud and the boys quack out...
