Salem, Pemphredo ("Phreda"), Deino &
Enyo
were rescued on 7/15/10 in Salem CT in a parking lot near Horse Pond.
The quartet were too afraid to venture
out onto the water and were huddled up on shore. Ducks who have never seen big water
before are petrified of it because it's unknown to them. This told us that they
were probably dropped off the night before. The four of them ran over to us
quacking for food and love, and were thrilled to give them both!
These happy ducks come running up to us for treats and love
eating out of our hands! All
four are VERY friendly and sweet! They have also grown nice, round bellies while
in our care, which led to their nicknames: The Four Widdle Piddies!
These ducks are a true delight!
Salem is the leader of the bunch!
Enyo is very LOUD and has the fluffiest little bottom we have
ever seen!
Phreda is the friendliest and most trusting of the group!
Deino is gentle and trusting too!
Interested adopters need to be prepared for the mating season. In spring &
summer, Salem and Deino get along very well, but a simple dividing fence needs
to be placed between them and the girls to prevent any over-mating. Monitored
conjugal visits keep everyone happy. As the season of love wanes down in the
fall they can all be allowed together again through the winter.
