Winston & Mr. Pearl are a bonded pair
of drakes, imprinted on humans and very friendly. They are very loving and
trusting of their family. They have the funniest walk of any of our ducks,
taking fast little pitter-patter steps that are very endearing and wonderfully
comical. Winston & Mr. Pearl frighten easily and don't like going anywhere
outside of their pen without their family nearby to protect them. They look to
humans for protection and to make them feel safe. They are afraid of other
drakes and need a home without any other boys sharing their pen.
The boys get along extremely well in the spring, fall and
winter, but squabble and sometimes need to be separated by a portable dividing fence
(available at Petco/Petsmart) during
the summer.
Even during the warmer months when they don't get along perfectly,
they can't stand to be out of each other's sight and like to be side by side on
opposite sides of a shared fence. Sadly, this one requirement has left them
skipped over by many families. Winston & Mr. Pearl have been with us for a few
years, waiting for their forever home.
