• 4 new ducklings died on valentines day
    50 replies, posted
My mom has been feeding ducks on the front lawn for a while now and every now and then they will make a nest in the bushes nearby too. On Saturday (the day before valentines day) 4 ducklings hatched. I woke up late in the day to hear them peeping outside. Their bountiful amounts of cheerful life brought happiness to the area. Not being old enough to walk they stayed nested with their ecstatic mother. They looked something like this. [img]http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa287/mechanical_chicken/duckling.jpg[/img] The next morning for them was the most promising day of their lives, not because this day was any better then other days, but today they were given the gift of mobility now that their legs work properly. In their innocent minds the world held boundless adventures just waiting to be discovered. Also, oblivious to them, it was valentines day, making it extra special for them. My mom went out to feed the ducks and the new ducklings. There was about 5 other ducks waiting for food besides the mom and the babies. She threw out some chicken seed. 3 of the ducklings were trampled. This has never happened before, we have had ducklings hatch here many times and nothing like this has happened. There was one duck left. He was a little rattled by his new friends having to "leave" him so quickly, but in his eye the future still held promise. Near the end of the day he decided to go for a swim apparently (I say "apparently" because this is where we found him the next morning floating on his back, dead). He decided to swim in the small little artificial pond we had in the front yard. Now this pond isn't made for small duckling to swim in because the outer edges go a little higher then the ducks are able to jump out. So, normally we have a makeshift ramp for new ducklings to be able to get out, but apparently it fell the day before. Without any way for the duckling to get out he must have swam until he ran out of energy or got hypothermia. Fuck valentines day.
That sucks dude.
you should eat them
You think because of the day this has happened? same shit different day, your the fool for expecting valentines day to be a magical occasion.
That's sad but the progression of it all is just hilarious.
Poor ducklings..That fucking sucks.
:ohdear:
Nooooo! D: NOT THE DUCKLINGS! On the serious note: They should make them stay away from other ducks for a while.
