I'm really good at raising, training, and handling ducks. I'm the duck expert of my family and friend groups. I'm also damn good at treating injured or sick ducks myself, but that's a necessity because there aren't any vets remotely close to me that treat waterfowl. Performed very minor surgery on one of mine a couple months ago and he is totally fine now. I also treated a crippled duckling who was really close to needing put down and managed to get her legs working well enough for her to have a good life. She walks on her knees, but she gets around just as well as the other birds now. It's her first birthday in a couple weeks.

Omg, can we please see some pictures of your ducks? You must pay the duck tax.

Legs is the crippled duck in the front. Cayenne is the brown duck on the left. Judy is the white duck in the back

I have 10 birds total, but the others are hard to get pics of.
