We spent hours trying to come to an agreement but sadly, the ducks have chosen violence. They have started to bully the rest of the animals and we don't tolerate that here. We don't waste anything so I will make sure they have a pleasant time before the end.
But the sky was beautiful. It has rained a lot so the backyard is definitely a swamp. I try to enjoy everything.
Teddy and Angel watch over their guards because my brother in laws takes them.
No Scotland, No Party!!! I'm not Scottish but we've been enjoying the World Cup so much.

Rillettes are an amazing addition to many dishes or pretty divine as an addition to a charcuterie board.

https://www.saveur.com/hearty-vegetable-stew-duck-confit-cabbage-recipe -absolutely delicious and rich beyond belief. If you want you can easily modify it without the pork belly and using duck breast or legs. I swear by this soup-it is delicious.

My brother used to live in one of those housing developments that have “lakes” (really just shallow canals) between houses. There were ducks that lived there, some mallards and some big white ones. The mallards outnumbered the whites by an 4:1 or more, but they whites still dominated the “lakes.” My brother referred to it as duck apartheid.

Pretty much. I was hoping they would all be females, because we trade for eggs, but they are all males. Even our chickens are done with them. But hey, every part will be used. :D

I'm confused--"the end" as in duck soup or adoption by brother-in-law?

Freezer camp. We love our animals but we have a line.

I apologize if me sending recipes was horribly tone-deaf...it kinda was in hindsight. I know you care for the quackers. ...it's just that I really love Teddy Bear and the rest of your homestead and if they are causing anxiety in your other pets-I took a side. Sorry friend. (I also really like duck and cook with it fairly often, so may have flown off the handle)

We are a hunter family so no need to apologize! One duck will go to us, another to my brother in law, and the last will go to our Nanny. Teddy Bear has been such a good boy.

I had to rehome my ducks because they couldn't get along with the chickens. They started the fight so they were chosen. I missed them, but it just wasn't working.
QuackMagicAndHerMagicalBeer
We have three males so it has become even more of a problem. I love them but we don't tolerate bullies.

They tear the feathers out of the female's neck when they get aggressive. It's not ideal.

Well you can't say you didn't try. I fully understand. You can't tolerate the bullies.
QuackMagicAndHerMagicalBeer
Even our roosters are afraid of them which says a lot.
TheFastpaws
Well at least they will likely taste good.
QuackMagicAndHerMagicalBeer
And we use almost everything. The feathers will go to a Native American friend, the bones to another, and such
TheFastpaws
That is impressive. It can be hard to truly do that.

Hey, we all want peas!

But how do we get peas?

Years ago, I got yelled at by a lady who didn't want me feeding ducks peas. It was a bit weird. Why, something like it's bad for them, or I don't remember it was dumb
TheSwedishMoose
She wanted the peas for herself.
