Help Our Cause

---

Bee came into us with her siblings who were significantly bigger than her. She is full of life and character and has no fear. Bee is a Call Duck.

Teddy has come to us from a wonderful home where his owners saved him from a fox attack and nursed him back to health. The attack left Teddy with only about a 1/4 of his beak and tongue but despite this, he manages wonderfully. Teddy is a Cayuga Cross.

Poppy came to us as an older lady some significant issues with lameness and walking. Despite her problems, she is a feisty girl and keep us entertained with her antics. Poppy is a Pekin.

Derek is a charming older chap who thinks he is more dog than a duck. He loves nothing more than to follow you around and pester you for a stroke and a fuss. Derek has a severe angel wing and so cannot fly but he doesn't let this stop him. Derek is a Muscovy.

Zoe, who is actually a boy joined the rescue as a resident two years ago. He came with his best friend Lola, also a boy, but sadly Lola passed away last year.

Zoe now has a new best friend Bob, who whilst younger is a great carer for Zoe who is an older gentleman. Zoe is a Pekin.

Jemima is one of our smaller disabled residents who loves to chill out under a tree or on a branch. She has a deformity in her leg which means that she cannot use it. This does not stop her though, she hops or flies to get around. Jemima likes to wait until everyone else has gone to bed before she gets in! She is such a lovely little girl. Jemima us a Mini Appleyard.

Despite the name, Penguin is a duck! Penguin is Teddy's wife and they came in together to the rescue. She does not have a disability but she was so attached to Teddy that we could not bear to separate them. They are pretty much inseparable which is so lovely to see. Duck love is such a beautiful thing, we all need that in our lives! Penguin is a Runner.

Erica has a tiny crest on her head, which means that she is more vulnerable. She absolutely loves to spend her time dipping in and out of the pools. She also loves the sunshine, and will spend her days jumping in the pool then drying off in the sun under the trees. Erica is a Saxony.

Sponsoring our flock means you will get to hear about all their antics, with different photos and news each month.

Sponsoring our disabled flock means you will get to hear about a different disabled duck each month including photos and news.  

Zeus is a long standing resident at the rescue. 

As Zeus has aged he sadly lost his friend Conan and has recently developed a new bond with a younger chap called Reggie. These two hit it off straight away and have been firm friends ever since. He and his best friend Reggie are two of our most boisterous boys who love nothing more than to peck at the volunteers. Zeus is a Pekin.

Forest is an older lady who was struggling with the standard duck set-up her owner had. So her owner decided to rehome her at the rescue so that she could live in a more disabled-friendly set-up.  This was such a difficult decision for her owner to make and we are so grateful she decided to do what was right for the duck and not for her. Often this is not what happens and sometimes ducks come to us a little later than they should. We understand it is hard to make this sort of decision but in the end, it has to be what is right for the duck and Forest loves living here. Forest is a Mallard. 

Vera Duckworth is 14 years old and whilst she started her time with us with her best friend as a mirror she has since made some wonderful new friends.  

Vera is such a sweet little girl who loves nothing more than a gosspit with the girls and a flirt.

Vera is a Khaki cross 

Daisy and her husband came to the rescue as Daisy had broken her leg and the vets had suggested putting her to sleep was the only option.

We set and bandaged Daisys leg in place and after a time the bone heeled in place allowing Daisy to walk again. She has a small limp but she certainly doesnt care - making herself known to the world at every opportunity. Daisy and Burt live with our disabled flock.

Daisy and Burt are Mini Appleyards

Odi is a gorgeous little Runner girl who came to the rescue without the ability to walk or stand. Simularly to Onni its believed this is a neurological condition but Odi doesnt care - shes such a happy girl.

Shes still young but as she grows we will be develping a wheelchair for her to use.

Onni came to us at a week old when his owner realised he would never be able to walk, likely due to a neurological issue. He wanted him to have a happy supported life and so he has been with us ever since. He is a fearless and determined little boy who doesn't let his neurological issues stop him.  He has a wheelchair to help him get around and it is such a pleasure to have him living with us at the rescue.

Wallace is handsome boy who came to us following an accident which left his only mobile leg and foot damaged meaning he cannot walk. We treated his injuries and have grown to love his calm and happy disposition. He has his own little disabled flock to keep him company

Wonky came to us as a youngster due to his lack of mobility in both legs. He's a sweet-natured boy who has made lots of new friends since he arrived. He loves to spend his days laying in the sunshine and snorkelling the grass.
