    I think the fact that you BOTH felt the 4 hours to Jess was worth it says a lot about you as humans and as a couple. Love you two! You really are such genuine and amazing human beings!

    This is hands down my fav vlog of yours! What kindness you showed to go back the way you came to make sure you found Rocky a safe home! It was sad that they got dumped but Rocky met you and Chris for a reason. You saved its life! Beautiful end to this story. :)

    It's very common for people to get ducks for Easter and when they realize how messy they are they Dump them in a lake or stream. When it gets older if it has a Curly feather on the tail and a quiet quack it's a boy, loud quack is a girl. Plus ducks live for 8 to 12 years, they have lots of personality and they lay a lot of eggs, but they love mud! I have two rescues who were abandoned due to people not realizing how much work they are.

    I love this video. ❤️ The day that Linnea became momma duck and Chris became daddy duck. True love.🥰 Jess is so kind to give Rocky a home. Getting two more baby ducks was just what Rocky needed. May they all live long and prosper.🙏

    I have watched your videos for months now and I’m not a huge commenter on videos in general. This just touched my heart so much with you helping Rocky!! I cried because ducks are so very special. My daughter incubated a Peking duck egg at school years back and took it upon herself to bring the duckling home. So I became a duck Mama to one of the best pets I have ever had, her name was Moe. She stayed in the house with us until she was too big and then moved outside. She was literally one of the best pets I have ever had in my whole life. She swam with the kids in a blow up pool, would follow you around like a dog, and was so loving and very smart! Thank you so much for being so kind. This touched my heart. ❤❤

    When I heard that ducks are dumped after Easter, I grew sad, I'm betting there were more than two discarded there, thats why all the feed. Those heartless creeps! You two did a sweet thing saving her.

    You are a beautiful soul. Even greater than your outer beauty (which is so special considering you don't do all the makeup/glam things) is your inner beauty. Watching your videos brings me joy, so thank you for that.

A dear friend that I used to work with for over 20 years passed away this past Sunday, Mother’s Day. So this little Rocky was so good for me. ❤️❤️

    Love - Love - Love , this video. It shows who you truly are, (a fantastic soul) to figure out his sidekick was missing, to see that he was worried, to make phone calls and try to find him a safe place. To make the 4 hours trek so he / she is in safe hands. We are here on earth - to protect them. Great job you both ***** from beautiful So Cal - specifically South Orange County - Laguna Beach, Dana Point , San Clemente

    She was meant to find you. Love that you changed plans to get her to a safe home. What a gift. More people need to find this love and compassion within them and let it out. The crazy in the world would dissipate. Animals make this world better. Being someone in animal rescue, this absolutely made my day! Baby duck is imprinting with you.:) your friends place is amazing.

    Totally know what you mean about everyone trying to get you to sleep in their house instead of your van. It is always funny to me how many people don’t seem to realise how much more comfortable my van is to me than their guest room.

    I am president of a small animal rescue in California and can attest - Easter and Christmas "gifts" get dumped like crazy. Domestic bunnies abound here in one of the parks after someone decided to dump theirs. It's so sad because domestic animals (in my experience) rarely survive. So amazing to see the work you two put in to save this baby. Thank you for loving Rocky and getting her safe.

  • @AnxiousStacker

    I literally saved a baby duck or goose with no mother to be found just a couple weeks ago. Ended up calling a friend that has baby chickens and she came straight out and picked it up and happy to report it's doing great in its newfound life with the chickens and kids on the land it's on. If anyone is interested in hearing more details and seeing pictures I have a Community post of it on my channel.

    What the hell is wrong with people, dumping little baby ducks? Sometimes people really suck. Luckily you guys and your friend have restored my faith in humanity. I’m so glad Rocky has a loving home with siblings and other animal friends. Great job guys. ❤❤❤

    Nothing cuter than a baby duck. I hatched baby chickens from eggs under heatlamps to get the imprinting effect as a kid, went on to show in 4-H fair competitions. Was really embarrassing when I fanned the feathers out for the judges and there weren't any,😮 because my dad had caught her trying to fly over the fence the day before and didn’t tell me. Rocky made a nice adventure for you guys, glad you were both up for it. Seriously, don't know another man who would be. Rocky isn't the only lucky duck. You guys are awesome.
    Anyway, girl, thanks for another nice day with you.

Best of luck you two with everything. You've helped me so much, i appreciate it. Especially with building my van, couldn't have done it without you. Oh! Installing a water pump for the sink is easy schmeezy. The guy on Ourkaravan set up a perfect, simple system.

    What a heart warming story, thanks to both of your compassionate hearts. I rescue animals. 33 years ago I was at AG DAY and was shocked to find out that the babychicks for the kids to hold would be destroyed at the end of the day. My heart was broken, I even offered to buy them they refused to sell them to me. They said they would die anyways. Still makes me sick. Thank you for bringing this situation to people's attention. Great video as always
