2 Ducks to Re-home

Hi,

I have two ducks which are about 4 years old that need a new home due to a combination of lifestyle changes (both me and my wife now work whereas previously she was at home in the day) and my dog taking an unhealthy interest in them (they used to be able to roam freely in the garden with the dog, but he has become very aggressive towards them lately). Ideally, I would like to rehouse them to either a wetland centre or to another duck owner sot that they could live with other ducks. They are partly Ayelsberry and partly Indian runner (they look more like Ayelsberry ducks in size but have mixed colouration). They are good looking, friendly and funny but would benefit from spending more of their day outdoors than they do at the moment. They are also flightless (they can get in the air but only fly a couple of meters) so need a protected enviornment (away from foxes, dogs etc.). One is a male & one female.

Any advice on how to re-house them or offers of a duck friendly enviornment would be much appreciated.

Steve
