Leg ring for duck wanted

Joan from Masterton District

Would anyone be able to supply me with one leg ring for a while Pekin duck. None of the pet shops sell them now and I only want one not ten in a packet.

It is for a duck called Ivor. He is the only surviving ducking out of 22, what with eels, cats and disease taking their toll.
Ivor the survivor, is now nearly as big as his mother.
With four white ducks I will soon be having trouble knowing who is who.

He has an idyllic life swimming and duck diving in my stream, and comes up for a meal when he feels a bit peckish, always with Mum. Bit of a spoilt only child.
Happy to pay and pickup.

Hey neighbours,

Waking up with sore shoulders and stiff mornings? Here’s the plot twist - it might actually be your mattress (and pillow) letting you down.

It’s the perfect time to upgrade. New Year, New Bed! Our Boxing Day Sale is still on, so why not treat yourself to a mattress that actually supports you and helps you wake up refreshed? Side sleeper? Back sleeper? Tossing and turning? We’ve got tips and solutions for every kind of snoozer.

Don’t settle for mornings that hurt, your bed should work with you, not against you. Curious about how your mattress could be affecting your shoulders? Check out our blog: beds4u.co.nz...
