In-duck-structible: The Duck That Wouldn't Die!!!!

Back in 05 my dad had an idea of getting ducks during the rainy season. "Fun" I thought and it was fun. We thought that they would only live for a year or two. That's where we were wrong! I won't give you the whole history lesson about my ducks because you will be here until your next birthday, so I will tell you the short version. Get out your math brain! We started with 6 ducks, lost 2, gained 2, lost 3. We are now at 3 ducks. I love math! (if you look on the side bar, there is a picture of them)

One of my ducks, Chip, who is 6 years old, has a knack for getting hurt.(the one on the top in the picture) He has been hit in the back of the head with rocks, golf balls, sticks and who knows what else. We has had part of his foot chomped off by a snapping turtle,  he stepped on a nail, and twisted his ankle. Have you ever seen a duck limp?
Anyway, last week I went out to put my ducks to bed and found that Chip had been attacked by a fox, but for some reason the fox didn't do in the duck, drag it off and eat it. My mom said not to go into details because it was kinda yucky! At one point I didn't think that he had any eyes!(No more details, don't worry, you can eat your lunch now, if you still want to!) But he is still alive and back to normal. He still has his eyes! This duck is indestructible! He may be a wacked out duck, but he sure has some kind of immune system!

It's hard trying to take a picture of a duck that won't sit still!


"Dude, Like Get this Like Thing Like Out Of My Like Face!"

I think that this duck could go on the list of things that would survive a nuke blast, along with Twinkies, ding-dongs and cockroaches!
