They say the tastiest ducks come from New Foundland. :-)

Sure, they're cute now, until they grow up to be street ducks.

Awww. How sweet.

I have been considering raising my own chickens, but I am such a pushover I’d probably get attached to them, give them names, and increase my animal feed and vet bill, which I don’t need.

I already have my deer spoiled, although a few times when I caught them in my green beans I wanted to shoot them immediately.
