My experience of ducks is that they will put up with almost anything if food is offered. I went to a new year's party a while ago where a duck (admittedly a pet one) was happily wandering around the kitchen making contented quacking noises while loud music and drink occurred.

On that basis I doubt they'll even notice K7, let alone be particularly worried! :lol:

I had a cheat up my sleeve - I breed chickens and turkeys and such and have been known to hatch the occasional duck. I was going to take a boxful over there just in case and donate any left over to the local bird population. Now how fair can I be?
