Selling 7 domestic / pet ducks

I have 7 ducks that we need to rehome due to changes in circumstances.
We have had all 7 ducks from new born and they are all between 2 and 3 years old.

We have one male/drake and 6 females/ducks

1 male Indian runner duck
1 female Indian runner duck
2 female Indian runner / muscovy ducks (Cross)
2 female Khaki Campbell ducks
1 female Muscovy duck

All ducks are healthy and happy.
They live free range (in aviary at night)
They will not fly away, but the Muscovy ducks can all jump a 1 meter high fence if you do not clip the wings
They lay eggs in the spring and summer.
Egg sizes vary between very large and very small

Each breed of duck are related so breeding should be done with other ducks.

They eat grain all year around, layer pellets in the spring and summer.
They eat most human food scraps (Don't give them unhealthy stuff)
They love bananas. Yes, its true (:

They don't make too much noise, but they do quack when scared or hungry.

If you would like to know more then please contact me.

Looking to rehome as soon as practical.
Ducks will not be sold for eating or to anyone who will not look after them. And they must be homed somewhere that has space for them.

The ducks can be moved in boxes, but you will need a large car to fit them all in. Or more then one trip.

Please call or message me on 020 4087 5352

Price: $50

Poll: Do you use a top sheet on your bed?

Stacey Reporter from Stuff

Along with landline phones and bar soap, top sheets are allegedly an "endangered species".

It's a topic of discussion that crops up every year or so and in some places, using a top sheet when you make your bed is almost unheard of. What's your preference?

You're invited to One Christchurch - an opportunity to discover central city architecture through free, one-off access to special buildings, as well as a range of themed walking tours.

As part of the programme, presented by Te Pūtahi and supported by Resene, three inner-city school buildings will open their doors for one day only.

From Japanese-influenced timber architecture and a sky playground to a dining hall steeped in tradition, these buildings are engaging examples of how design impacts the students’ experiences at school.

The programme kicks off on Sunday 30 June with The Cathedral Grammar Junior School and is followed by two other school buildings opening in the weeks that follow: the stunning heritage building, Christ’s College Memorial Dining Hall (4 August); and Ao Tawhiti, Christchurch’s only vertical school (7 September).

Qigong is the foundation to Tai Chi. It is relatively simpler than Tai Chi and has more healing than Tai Chi.
Qigong includes dynamic and static forms.
Zhineng Qigong emphasises moving meditation rather than static meditation.
It uses the consciousness, body, breath, sound vibrations and the universal Qi (energy) to initiate positive transformation within the body, mind and spirit.

Regular practice can improve your health, immune system, spine, pelvic floor muscles, core strength, serenity, relaxation, energy and inner joy.

Beginners classes start from the 24th Wed and 25th Thu of July (school term).

Around the world, communities, schools, businesses, groups and people from all walks of life are taking big and small steps in solidarity with refugees. This World Refugee Day, we challenge everyone in New Zealand to join together and take a step to make a difference.

You can take part in the #StepWithRefugees campaign, where participants will collectively walk, run and cycle 1 billion miles - the distance refugees cover each year to reach safety, by adding your steps here: stepwithrefugees.org...

Another option is to volunteer with the New Zealand Red Cross as a Refugee Support Volunteer. Volunteers help families start again, while teaching them about New Zealand culture and connecting them with people from the community.

For anyone based in the Wairarapa, Masterton Neighbourhood Support has a programme called 'WeConnect' that matches new residents from diverse backgrounds including refugees to a local buddy. If you're interested in volunteering or supporting the programme in other ways you can email Masterton Neighbourhood Support Area Coordinator, Cathy Cameron, at: cathy@connectingcommunities.org.nz
