Dear Dr Duck,
I recently came upon a disturbing discovery. Coming back from the White Swan, our local drinking pool, I noticed my latest copy of "HenHouse Monthly" was missing from my sock drawer. It transpires that my youngest chick, Charlie is a cause for concern. I came upon him in his room holding the above said item with one hand and a greased carrot in the other !! The magazine I can handle and I now know why our mixed veg had a strangely organic flavour.
Could you advise on the best way to confront this problem ?

Dr Duck Says......
Sock Drawer !!?? You need to find a better hiding place. The first place a curious youngster will pry is his fathers smalls drawer. Why not take a leaf out of my book, place your jazzies in a water tight plastic bag, weighed down with small pebbles and submerse it in your outside water tank. Then, when you fancy ruffling your plumage, you can say to the missus "I'm just popping out to tend me rhubarb, I may be some time !". This works quite well considering (a) we've never liked rhubarb, and (b) I haven't grown any rhubarb since the early fifties !. As for Charlie, I'll admit I am stumped although I would advise a switch to tinned produce.
