So I keep ducks and have hatched ducklings for about 5 years now. I have this same issue every year but today it was devastating. I had 11 Cayuga ducklings and 7 blue swede ducklings. I gave them water and 10 of them are dead. All waterlogged. Was able to save a couple. I'm pretty devastated and it has me questioning if I should even keep ducks. I don't know what to do or how to prevent this, I stay diligent on food and water, I get the right food, they seem to be in fantastic health... And then one day I give water and they all start dying. I love ducks and ducklings, but it's getting to the point where I almost feel like I don't want to do this anymore.... Idk what to do when simply giving them water causes a mass die off... Sorry this is so venty, I feel extremely depressed at the moment.

1999 S10, got looking underneath it for the first time in a long time (I killed a rotor) and got a good taste of just how rusty it looks underneath. To me, most of this appears to be surface rust and likely probably not a huge issue (especially for a 26 year old truck that's still on the road) but I'm starting to have concerns on when to decide too much is too much. I will note that I did drop 2k to put a rebuilt transmission in it just a month ago, shop never made any mention of the rust. I figure I'd they thought it was a major issue they would have flagged that to me but you never know. Hit the frame with my hand along it and it seemed solid

Posting here since auto mechanic doesn't allow rust related posts tho I think this is more structure/mechanical related than auto body.

Frustrated with Waterlogged Ducklings

When is the rust too much?
