I have ducks and they go absolutely crazy for watermelon. My neighbor gave me half a watermelon the other day because he couldn’t fit it in his fridge. I have it to the ducks and they went wild. Luke a cartoon style piranha feeding frenzy. The white birds looked like they’d been drenched in the blood of their enemies. One of them decided to sit in the empty rind after they were done and laid an egg in it, to assert dominance.
They also love birdseed and peas. I had a duck who could recognize canned peas based on the labels and would flip out if he saw me approaching with them. He also adored bird seed and would help himself to the bag if it was in a place he could knock it over. Found him stuck in an empty birdseed bag once. It wasn’t empty that morning. Bro was a glutton, but he was a good boi.

Wait, really? The rest of your comment sounds sincere, but this is so absurd that I genuinely can’t tell if this happened or if you’re just being funny.
Yeah. Ducks are absolutely ridiculous creatures. My two pekins follow the cat motto of “if I fits I sits.” I find them in silly places all the time. The female, Judy’s, favorite place to sit outside is a hole she dug herself over a couple of months.
We had pekin and they figured out a good food hack. We fed the flocks using gutters (then everyone can feed without fighting for space). But the pekins would straddle the gutter, stick their head in the feed with mouth open, and then flap forward and kick their feet to ‘ride’ the gutter and scoop up as much food as possible. It was highly effective.
They ate 10x more than a regular duck and were 5x louder and always involved with any shenanigans going down. Fuck Pekin ducks.
Lmao that’s hilarious and sounds right for pekins. My boi Salt is so chonky. I feed my birds by making piles of feed in different areas. He just barrels his way through the flock to get first pick of the piles. He eats like he’s starved.
Ducks are like that for sure. They will certainly claim a spot. And eggs just kinda come out the egg hole sometimes. Especially if they aren’t able to secure a nest to lay on a schedule.
I’ve seen eggs roll out while they are running past to get to their pond.

Duck tax means sending cute pictures of ducks btw.
You have to give it every time you mention you own a duck.
Now without further ado, send duck pics.
Duck tax sent in response to the first tax request comment
Tax evasion??
Duck tax! Wohoo!
I definitely made the comment but I’m thinking that I didn’t do a reply, but a comment on the post overall. -_-
The tax is in my profile. I just checked it. Don’t come after me DRS (Duck revenue service)
That sounds so cute. Would you mind paying the Duck Tax?

Not OP but totally sounds real.

My girls tend to lay inside their house, but sometimes I’ll find eggs in random spots outside.
