At the vet with Jemima Puddle Duck. She has gained a little weight. She was 3.8 when I got her. She is 4.1 now. Just want her checked over to make sure nothing else is going on.

Back in January of 2022 I took in my first 4 ducks from a sanctuary down south of me in Ohio. He was an old man that couldn’t manage running a rescue anymore. He has just passed away a few days ago. I never posted these guys before. There are ones I just do not post. Whether it be it’s just too sad or because I don’t want to call out another rescue or human being. Especially as I’m sure many remember I was called out and had a big smear campaign going by a few other rescue groups. It was detrimental and completely wrong. Down right bullying. Lies and things said that cannot be reversed. It was the worst experience I have went through and was completely unnecessary. I had a Facebook group made up about me and these people bought my domain name and made a webpage. I will never understand why or how people can be so nasty especially when complete lies were made up and anyone that has been here knows that what was being said wasn’t the truth.

That all being said. I’m sure some are wondering why I’m posting these pictures now…To shed some light on what happens in rescue. To let others know I’m a human being with a heart and when I’m cut I bleed like anyone else. I never wanted to front Bill out while he was still living and my intentions aren’t to do that now. I have taken in numerous ducks from him since I first took in these 4. Never posted or asked for donations and it was a job trying to get it worked out each time he contacted me to get the ducks he no longer wanted to keep. He continued to take in ducks up until he passed.

The same individuals that recently attacked me and my rescue knew about this person and did nothing to the degree they tried to destroy me. And he truly was not fit to care for himself let alone birds. Other wildlife rescues in Ohio will not deal with me any more because of the lies that were told about my rescue.

The ducks in this picture lived in his home and they are not covered in dirt or mud. It’s pure duck p**p. He couldn’t clean up after them. I won’t post his living conditions because that’s not my place to do and it’s really not necessary. I could keep going on but I will end here. I will post a video in the comments of me me bathing 2 of them. Before the last duck I got from Bill a few weeks ago these were the worst I got from him. The others in between these ones and the last guy were not nearly as bad thankfully.

I appreciate so very much all my supporters that have stood by me. That’s what has helped me keep going. ❤️

This little lady appeared out of no where on someone’s vacant property. They posted about her on a local group and I worked it out to get her. Thanks as always to Robin for going to pick her up and meeting me to get her. Thankful for the family that got her safe and took her in until they found help. She is emaciated and her webbing on one foot is gone. It’s sad to think what she went through. She doesn’t have very good balance and I assume it’s from malnourishment. Hoping for a full recovery.

I’m still checking in on and feeding the dumped khaki boys. There were 5. One disappeared a couple months ago. The others seem fine.

The turkey that showed up at my place on May 28. She had horrible stress bars on her feathers. I have no clue where she came from. She appears she is doing well and happy here.

No metal toxicity found. Likely a viral infection. Started him on antibiotics…If anyone would like to help pay towards Fred’s bill it is greatly appreciated.

Very sick boy here. Doing X-rays to check for metal poisoning. Very little hope he will make it but a little hope is sometimes enough.

A very majestic bird. ❤️

Another boy with ascites. I drained what I could. He is still breathing slightly heavy. Hopefully we can get him in the vet to see if it’s liver or heart failure. I’m so tired of all the sadness. I know there is much to be thankful for but some days the heartache takes its toll.

The Delhi Park ducks have been captured and I picked them up today. Great work for the kayakers and the team that worked hard today to catch them. The four pekins were also picked up and transported with them. The people could not keep them.
If anyone is looking for ducks please direct message me. It’s hard to follow on my posts. I want to keep groups together if possible. Need predator proof protection at night.

This is maybe half the pools, buckets and bowls I fill with water at least twice a day. The electric has went out 3 days in a row. Yesterday was the whole day. It’s been out most of today and still out. I need to find a way to have water at all times. I feel terrible. I have been buying gallons of water and filling bowls but it doesn’t last long and getting expensive. I have the pond but not everyone goes to it. Any ideas?

10/10/2024

I was going to post tomorrow to update about Angel. Surgery went well and I picked her up at about 3. Got her home and settled in for the evening. She seemed to be feeling ok. Our electric was out all day so it had been a hectic day as it was. I don’t know what happened or why but she just passed away.

I really don’t know how much longer I can keep doing this. I’m just beyond heartbroken. 💔

Another handsome boy. 😍

Angel dropped off at the vet to have her tumor removed. 🙏🏻🦆

08/10/2024

Had another nice surprise today. Came home from the vet and had some chewy donations. ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you!

07/10/2024

Surgery Wednesday. Benign tumor.

07/10/2024

Angel is not seeming to be bothered by The big growth on her leg/foot. But I am so we are at the vet. Hopefully nothing serious.

06/10/2024

Nothing better than a puddle of mud.

04/10/2024

I just got home and found a nice surprise. Brought happy thankful tears to my eyes.
Thank you so much whoever donated. Very much needed and appreciated.

03/10/2024

The ducks and turkeys want to thank whoever sent some meal worms. They all got some today. ❤️🦆🦃

Jolene (pekin) and Spike (call) are a happy couple. He’s always by her side. Jolene is the girl that had surgery earlier in the year to remove a mummified egg. She has been doing good so far.

Pretty boy

Guinea hen with an injured leg. Couldn’t walk or stand when I got her. It’s been a couple weeks and with plenty of rest she is starting to use her leg. I really wasn’t sure she would walk again but I see some hope now.

Wet dreary day. Some of the happy fluff bottoms.

We still need rain.

Dilly stirring the pot just before she went down.

I rescued Dilly about 4 years ago at Liberty Park. She has always had some neurological issues but she is starting to get a little worse. She has good days and clumsy days. I’ve been bringing her inside at night because she ends up like this and I’m constantly going out to check on her. She is one of my favorites. I hope to have her a long time…❤️ Dilly Dolly

Sweet girl has permanent neck damage from an injury she got when she was young. Still seems to get along just fine.

These two just rescued starving girls will be for adoption soon. Predator proof coop or building at night please.

Wanted to share some of the ones that got to enjoy the mazuri donations that came in. Happy quackys. ❤️

Release of the fishing line goose.

Injured duck

Graphic video. Poor girl had her whole leg ripped off so I knew I’d be dealing with maggots. I got her comfortable for the evening. Seems to be superficial. We will see what the vet says. 🙏🏻

Jelly Bean

We are back at the vet. Jelly Bean has gotten worse. Please pray for her to get better.

3 girls that needed a new home. A goose with fishing line around his neck, removed and released. A male pekin that has infection in his legs currently being treated. A mallard that was hit by a car his mate was killed and he had to be put down. Babies! 2 dumped geese that keep giving one of my favorite rescue people the go around but she will get them! And goose with fishing line I removed and released.
