In what way if it actually is, then oopsies

You *could* get salmonella.
You should always beware not to touch your face while handling them.. and wash your hands after handling them as well.

No promises… I can’t help myself from kissing their fuzzy heads

The CDC recommends you don’t do that…

I know, but it’s worth the risk, and they ARE my pets…

Pets or not, they've probably stepped all over eachother with their poop-filled feet. And that's the least of your worries...

I understand.
But imma gonna tell ya i got sick once... that may or may not have been what it was. But you'll definitely think twice if duck kisses are worth it when you experience explosive unstoppable diarrhea for nearly 24 hours that dehydrates you so fast you can't even get up off the floor.

Also I'm just throwing this out there.. not lecturing at all just making a statement here.

There are a lot of activists that would like to ban our right to keep backyard chickens and ducks without licences and lots of regulations. And they use health safety concerns to press the issue. So in a sense, it could some day have an impact on everyone who likes to keep poultry as pets if there becomes an increase in salmonella cases being reported.

So far I think Banana is definitely a girl, Cherry might be a boy, and Casper might be a boy. I’ll record their voices again after school. Pretty sure Bananas been making hen noises
