Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

Oh yes. I'm having issues putting pics in this comment, so here's an imgur album. These are various birds from various stages of life. The big one with the red face is my fave. His name is Antonio.

thanks for sharing. they're very cute. i assume they're pets?

[-] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

They are. I had two very aggressive males that I did not consider pets. The one became dinner and the other one was killed by the other ducks. I, and the other birds, have zero tolerance for bullies. Thankfully my whole flock is absolutely lovely now. <3

that's what i do in my life too, remove myself from aggressive folks and let them deal with the consequences of their behavior. haven't had aggressive pets though, so not sure what i would do.

It's easy to remove emotional attachment from aggressive livestock. At least it is for me. I grew up on farms, though, so that kinda thing is normal in my eyes
