THIS FLORIDA WOMAN IS SELF-ISOLATING WITH RESCUE DUCKS

RESCUE DUCKS

As many of us are going “quackers” quarantined at home, Tamara Hein is passing the time with her rescue ducks Gabby and Olivia. The ducks share a Tampa, Florida, townhome with Hein, her husband, and their rescue pup Diogi. Hein says, “Ducks, like people, need companionship too. So they look to me and my husband and our dog. Since I raised Gabby, for example, he thinks I am his flock.”

… The rescue ducks are enjoying have extra time with their human companions during self isolation. Hein says, “During quarantine, they are watching me do a lot of housework. The laundry is caught up and the kitchen is going through a deep clean, they are fascinated by that.”

… Hein first became a mother duck two years ago when she rescued Q Duck, a disabled duck who used a wheelchair to get around. Since his passing in late 2019, her flock and side yard have expanded.
