Description

At Bakewell show. The ducks were so beautiful they were black with dark green running through the feathers. I hate animals being offered for sale at shows, by the roadside & pet shops. People buy on a whim. The animals need better. There are good homes out there but there are a lot that are not. Rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, reptiles etc get a raw deal. Thanks for all the lovely comments & fav, so, so appreciated. xx

I agree with you. People who sell should check out the buyers.

Roadside Sale of Animals should be illegal!!! If they were sold, I hope they made it to a great home!!

I see 2 pots in the one photo. Ouch! Looks like some of them are destined for dinner. A pity for such beautiful birds. But the person selling them probably had enough of their squawking. I understand that particularly geese are considerable loud mouths and incessant squawkers (experience: from the large pond in Malmö city park! Where are my ear plugs?!). I wonder what they're so talkative about? Keep up the good work! :-)

Very valid points you make about the selling and buying of these animals as pets. Seems like every Christmas and Easter, there's articles about the decision to buy animals as pets. Great captures

I also have to agree Barbara - our Everglades are overrun with Pythons and Boa Constrictors that parents thought would make great pets for junior. Once they start growing and are eying the cat - they get thrown out in a swamp and million birds to eat. Once they reach 10 to 12 feet long - they are eating the alligators. Humans will be next and a lot of neighborhoods are wondering why there are fewer dogs than the year before.
