Ugly duckling has own bar stool in local pub

This unloved ‘ugly duckling’ who was abandoned by her family has been given a new home at her local pub – and even has her own bar stool.

Crispy the duck was hand-reared by pub landlady Gail Payne, 43, after becoming separated from her brood.


She was released into the wild two years ago but has stunned pub regulars by waddling back into the Black Lion Inn, in St Albans, Herts., while a football match was on the big screen.

The three-year duck has now decided to stay at the pub and even settled into her own bar stool where she anxiously pecks away at any drinker who dares sit on her seat.
