This Brilliant Creature has become a bit of a celebrity lately, and has even appeared in newspapers!
|
|
|
Rodney lives at Ammerton Farm Wildlife Centre, where he was hand-raised from being a duckling.
|
|
|
After a short bout of illness, Rodney was off his normal food, until he stumbled across something that he really, really likes.
|
|
|
A leftover takeaway!
|
|
|
Rodney now likes nothing better than egg fried rice - a chinese takeaway!
|
|
|
Gail and Stephen put Rodney to the test by giving him a choice of two delicious plates of food. First, a plate of corn...
|
|
|
...and secondly, a plate of egg fried rice!
|
|
|
And which did he prefer?
Egg fried rice of course!
|
|
|
We asked the Brilliant Creatures vet about Rodney's unusual eating habit, who said that rice isn't a problem for ducks. Grain is a natural source of their diet.
|
|
|
Eggs are good as well, because in the wild, ducks eat eggs.
They're a good source of protein.
|
|
|
He doesn't seem to need chopsticks, however!
