Cons: topple over when the big ducks jump into the pool
The local $-store was selling those cool-ducklings at a bargain last week! I thought they would make great company for my inferior drake »Limpy« who spend most of the time separated from the others in the duck-pool.
Turned out i was dead wrong: The Duckies were afraid of the new ducklings, maybe they are looking too cool?
After guarding the peppermint shrubs the »cool-brothers« finally were adopted by the flock and were allowed back into the pool. Now all ducks are playing with them and are glad to have them around.
Pros: Quiet, Never makes messes, Calm, Very friendly, Predators seem not to take interest
Cons: They don't lay eggs...
I Currently have a one year old female fake duck and plan on getting more.
My only fake duck name Ms. Nome is a indoors duck, When we first got her and tried to introduce her to our pekin and khakis they wouldnt get along. So we moved her indoors and ever since shes become part of our family. Shes very quiet so our dogs dont mind... Never seems to desiccate so we dont have to but diapers on her. She loves to snuggle and be petted. Here she is enjoying a movie on the couch with us!
