      I think so too. It's so sad that the duck was never found. But, at least the chicken has a companion in Ben. He is such a gentle animal. You guys are the best to rescue and release birds. It must be so fulfilling to foster them. If i had a backyard, i would love to do the same. 🐔🦆💞👍👍

    Assuming the duck was not in an accident or killed, it most likely left due to his instincts to find a partner and start a family. And that is hardwired in their DNA just like other bird species

    Last year, at 6 am, my husband was taking my 20 year old daughter to work. They interrupted a cat chasing a tiny duckling. It was one of those situations where either you save the duck...or let nature take its coarse. Well, my daughter took it in. Eventually got him a huge cage...he followed her around the house...outside...we got him a kiddie pool...it was too cute. Then one day, just like thus duck, he flew away and we never saw him again😢. We live in an area where there are ducks so we hoped for a visit..or a glimpse. Nothing. Sad!!

      What kind of duck was it? I am PRAYING this doesn’t happen to me.. I rescued a 2/3 day old black bellied whistling duck a year & 1/2 ago.. his name is Squeak. (Never knew I could love a duck so much) we also have a BUNCH of whistlers down the road in a pond.. squeak has flown off a couple times but he came back. I’m (trying) to prepare myself for him to leave for good but it scares the hell out of me lol. I love him so much but I know they are monogamous so I’m sure he’s going to want to find a mate (if I don’t find one for him). I plan on doing this come spring if he’s still home.

    1:40 That seems like a very bad idea. When you raise a domesticated animal, it's not exactly a "wild" animal anymore regardless of its species and therefore doesn't have the preparation it needs to survive out in the wild on its own. It seems like that's what happened in this case.
