Yes we can eat duck, but we can't eat pig. Any animals that come from the sea that's are not fish like oysters, squid and crayfish we also cant eat insects and horse unless it's its left leg and you must have no food and be close to death then its halal. Also, we can't eat animals that kill and eat meat with its canine teeth like dogs, lions, tigers and wolf and we can't eat birds that kill with there claws like eagles and buzzards there are other animals like a tortoise haram to eat and I don't know why we can't eat them but its haram to eat or kill them this answer is based in the Islamic teaching of Hanafiz. In Morocco they eat pigeon but they are maliki so it might be halal in there teaching and in Indonesia they eat a lot of insects but I have no idea what there teachings are. I am no imam and I don't want to misguide you so please ask your imam about any of these animals or insects.
Signs a duck is about to lay eggs?
I have always found, that a female duck will quack, and jerk its wings before laying. But, they seem to be shy. I could never get it to lay with me watching. But as soon as I hid around the corner to where the duck could not see me, it was only about 5 minutes before the egg came. The male was always near by, but never interacted.

What can help extreme dry cracked hands and feet?
My favorite treatment came from an emergency room doctor. He suggested a half and half mixture of vaseline and pure beeswax. Melt them together in a microwave safe container (careful... the liquid is VERY, VERY hot). Pour the melted mix into a container to harden. It will become quite firm. At bedtime, dig a little out with a clean utensil or your fingernail and put it in the palm of your hands. Your body heat will soften the mixture so you can rub it into your skin. Be generous. Water will bead up on your hands after using the treatment due to the wax content. Putting socks on your hands before going to sleep helps, too. I like it better than just vaseline because it's not so greasy, and a little goes a long way. I also put on surgical exam gloves (non sterile) when I shower in the morning. The wax mixture will wash off with warm water and soap, and can leave a residue in your hair if you wash it after doing the treatment. The gloves keep my hair free of the mixture, and the mixture stays on my hands despite the soap and water.
