I really have a blind pet duck as well as two other ones that aren't blind. They are 14 to 15 years old and hardly move, except for the blind one which can never seem to get enough food. It is hilarious to see him just stumbling along all day trying to eat the air in front him.

I want a duck :(

My dog is getting like that. :lol: As humorous as it is, I'd be pretty fucking terrified tbh.

How does one get a pet duck? Were you just a fan of Fly Away Home as a kid?

My ducks are ugly things. They were quite scary when it was mating season and they got territorial. Having a 7-8kg bird flying/running after you clawing and trying to bite you is a terrifying thing when you are a 6 year old. Now they are too old to do anything. Out of mating season they are nice animals.
Here is a picture of what the type of duck I have is

My mum thought they would be a good pet and they would have the added bonus of providing eggs. Unfortunately for her one of the three female ducks she thought she had bought was a male.
We soon had 30-40 ducklings of which most got sold off and we kept two that some duck person said were female but turned out to be both male. The female ducks stopped laying eggs when they were around 5 years old.

You're probably aware that Duck eggs are rather strong in flavour and not really the kind of things that you want to be feeding to kids. :lol: I kinda want a pet duck now.

Does anybody else remember that movie, Fly Away Home?

I remember the movie but that was geese not ducks in it. Geese aren't as happy as ducks. They are even more frightening to have chase you especially the big Chinese ones.

A friend of mine keeps Geese in her yard. It's pretty funny when she goes out for a cigarette and they chase her across the yard.

This conversation on newcastlefootball.net......



I lol'd :lol:

WFMB: Getting up to date in the ask afro thread.

WFMB: The Notebook.

WFMB: Going to training earlier this evening and finding out that I'm fitter than I thought I'd be. Even after having a year off last year.

WAFMB: After the year off, still being able to have a good range of passing over long and short distances and still having a decent first touch.

Avy #-o my girlfriend made me watch that a while ago. awful.

WFMB: beers at the bullo tomorrow.

I watched it tonight, I never watched it with someone who wanted to watch it and Im missing it now.

But on the movie, I didn't find it a tear-jerker but could understand how some would, and found it a surprisingly good movie.

it was soppy rubbish. i honestly didnt enjoy it. although rachel mcadams is amazing. my girlfriend that she is the only person she'd have a threesome with, so im really doing my best to make mcadams fall in love with me.

I recommend a plane ticket, duffel bag and chloroform.

ill add it to the list.

i figure if i watch wedding crashers enough times shes bound to come searching for me. im not a scientist but im pretty sure thats how sex works.

Perhaps what you need is a Rachael McAdams voodoo doll.

are voodoo dolls inflatable? i may already have one.

Nah, you stick a pin in your kind of Voodoo doll and it lets out a great big fart and files out the window.

WFMB: Moving house.

WFMB: Wednesdays......

WFMB: The amount of food you have after shopping for groceries

+1

And when you've moved out of home you value the amount of food you bought even more.

WRFMB: Our teacher for the last two periods is on camp with the Year 7's and forgot to book a replacement

WFMB: System Of A Down, going to Pit tonight. Chillin.

WFMB: When I get messages like these from Sydney/Adelaide fans:

No Sydney in that one! :P

Haha what a fuckwit, didn't realize wooden spooning was doing Australia proud, just remind him that in a few weeks you will be watching your team play in a third home grand final inside five years.
But really the irony of an Adelaide fan bagging out Victory is hillarious

WFMB: Got most of the furniture set up.
