Ducks and Geese Adopted
Here are photos of the ducks and geese that we have
placed in permanent homes so far. We love to hear from
their new families. If you have updated photos of a duck
or goose you have adopted from us, or a story to share
about them, please email us, so we can update this page
for you.

Lancelot is a Grey Chinese gander who was found
wandering around a gas station near a river. Rescuers
asked around, but could not find his home. He is the
friendliest gander we have ever met and we enjoyed his
stay with us thoroughly. Lancelot’s rescuers built a pen
and adopted him back from us and then they brought home
Guinevere a White Chinese goose as a companion
for him.
Five years later, the adopting family could no longer
keep the pair, but as it turned out, Lancelot's original
family found us and him! They were thrilled to welcome
Lancelot and Guinevere into their home. As it turns out,
Lancelot was with them for 12 years before getting lost
only a few houses away from their home. So, at 17 years
old, he finally found his way back home again.
A fairytale ending for all...

Hildegarde was rescued from a pond in Seymour,
Connecticut. A family living on the shore of the pond
safely removed her from the ice she was frozen into when
temperatures dropped into the single degrees. They
discovered her before she succumbed to any injury.
Hildegarde is a personality we will not soon forget.
This hen loves BOYS! Her antics around the drakes was
brilliant—herding them around in adoration. Hildegarde
was adopted by a loving family in Virginia. She joined a
flock of six Pekin ducks and three geese and is
currently sharing their big barn and large pond.

Han Solo was found "ice skating" in Old Saybrook,
Connecticut. He was all alone with no access to water,
in danger of predation, and in risk of frost bite and
starvation. A concerned citizen educated herself,
captured him and brought him to us. Han is a very
friendly drake. As soon as we took him in, he gave us
hugs of appreciation. It's amazing to believe someone
would drop this friendly boy off to fend for himself in
the wild.
This gorgeous drake joined his new family in Colchester CT. He shares his
home with a lovely duck named Georgetta and plenty of other rescued animals
including goats and horses.
