Browsing farm classifieds on a Sunday evening is not a good idea...

@sundogplanets Yep, Runner ducks are the best ducks! Congrats!

[silhelm@craftgoblin.club]

@sundogplanets they're so beautiful

[anke@social.scribblers.club]

@sundogplanets Fewer hooves than expected

@sundogplanets I am very excited to find out what makes these ducks special

[harriettmb@toot.wales]

@sundogplanets I never knew they came in all black. They are gorgeous.

@Canageek @sundogplanets
They stand tall and walk and don't fly and eat snails, is what I heard

@sundogplanets

They are lovely! One of my siblings had runner ducks and absolutely loved them

> One of my siblings had rubber ducks

I'm somewhat hoping @sundogplanets with her "runner ducks" was the one with the typo here..

@sundogplanets you made me curious, so I looked it up. For anybody who doesn't know like me: https://learnpoultry.com/runner-duck-facts/

@Pepijn @sundogplanets

Lol! I thought I'd corrected my typo in time

[bubblegumyeti@mastodon.social]

Oh! My wife wants some of these.

@sundogplanets That’s amazing
Runner ducks are the best — so energetic and funny to watch when they’re moving around like little upright rockets
Good call giving them time to settle in first though. Skittish ducklings need a bit of peace before the paparazzi phase begins
Can’t wait for the future “duck content flood”

@sundogplanets Aaawwwwww 🥰

[peperlito@boitam.eu]

@sundogplanets Congrats!
What are their names?

[markwyner@mas.to]

@sundogplanets nice! For a while we had two runner ducks: Marceline and Duck Vader (pictured here).

Thanks for the link.
> The Runner Ducks are friendly, and sociable but docile. For that reason, they are among the best choice of ducks to raise as family pets.

Uhh. Did not know. We'd got a feral one 15yrs ago that joined the flock one day and stayed till he met a vixen or her puppies outside. I never thought about him as friendly or sociable, he was a pure fury.

Oh, yeah! I have two of them on my bike-route to work. Always a highlight!

@sundogplanets AAAAAAAAAAAAA

Fluffy!
