Grin They are very cute. They follow each other around and don't quack at the moment, just make a 'meep meep' noise.

Ducks are awful I have a terrible phobia of all birds so I would have to say anything is better than a duck

Goldenbug · 11/08/2018 19:51

Baby duck are cute. Baby parrots are ugly, so not them.

A lobster.
I'm thinking Thermidor here obviously! Wine

Duck billed platypi - Yes. Builds on the duck formula with the addition of fur and flappy tail.

I need a duck-billed platypus in my life.

SDTG Google Assistant knows that joke! She told me the answer! 😂

Pus-filled duckyplat.

Absolutely nothing according to my toddler, except perhaps his duck socks!

IncrediblySturdyPyjamas · 11/08/2018 21:06

Nothing.

I would say a flamingo is better than a duck.
Flamingos are cool, elegant and have a bit of class.
Unlike your run of the mill duck!

Why baby Spiders of course.Wink

ErrolTheDragon · 11/08/2018 21:32

Wow... so duck billed platypuses have scratch spots like dogs? Amazing.

Thunderpunt · 11/08/2018 21:33

An Emu. Long legs to run on, long neck and beak to peck with, and if you find the righ5 one you get the added bonus of Rod Hull stuck up his bum

Thunderpunt · 11/08/2018 22:08

Uh oh... thread killer sorry Blush

MadameJosephine · 11/08/2018 22:11

Did you know that although duck billed platypi are mammals they don’t have nipples so they essentially just sweat milk from their pores and their babies lick it off them?

SeaEagleFeather · 11/08/2018 22:12

baby red squirrel

terrifying, though
