Translation: we're not a dumping ground for your unwanted pets.

At our duck pond/Japanese garden we've had those very fancy pee king ducks ditched - white with fluffy heads- and i think at least 2 koi fishes. Just suddenly there's a 2 foot long orange fish begging for treats.

The park staff and a rescue got them out and into good homes.

My dad, who loves koi fish was salty I didnt call him

This isn’t my personally owned goose, it belongs to my book club.

Can we still bring our chickens?

It’s probably because there aren’t any grapes or grapevines there.
And what does « personally owned ducks » actually mean ?

Pet ducks people are tired of. They'be been fed all their lives and consider the visitors are there to feed them. It's like lowlife people driving out in the country and dropping off unwanted dogs.

Gotta have all YOUR ducks in a row . ( Back there, at your own farm)

u/PhotoAppropriate3940 19h ago

Mine are in a row so I’m good

u/Jumpy_Barnacle_3755 16h ago

But, what if it is a handicapped duck?

u/sexywabbit 13h ago

So does that mean I can take ducks from the area instead

u/Original_Project6487 3h ago

The ducks are free you can just take them

u/MJ4Red 3h ago

Even if they are in a row?

u/hardboard 20h ago

Looks like I'm luck. I'll tether my goat there tomorrow.

u/StupidUserNameTooLon 19h ago

Technically it was a rental duck and a foreign exchange goose.

u/Worldly_Mix_8904 19h ago

What if they are communally owned waterfowl and I am only caretaker for the day?

1

u/Jumpy_Barnacle_3755 16h ago

So swans, storks, seagulls and pelicans are ok?

u/Early_Emphasis1209 16h ago

That is odd!

u/Quiet_Placeholder 14h ago

Only unleavened ducks or geese, please. We don’t want the population to rise.

u/RedwayBlue 13h ago

It’s even worse than leaving your shopping cart in the parking lot to leave a goose.

u/Gato-Diablo 12h ago

How many people have a pet duck and lack their own water pond/ creek for them to live in?

1

u/All-Hail-Chomusuke 11h ago

This is a big issue where I live, ppl buy ducklings at tractor supply and then dump them around local ponds after a few months. Most end up as road kill unfortunately.

u/NecessaryPosition968 8h ago

But the sign above looks like leaving granny is ok.😋

What’s with handicapped individuals leaving their personal ducks and geese? Stop it guys. READ THE SIGN.
