If you can enjoy the joke let a hen set a clutch of duck eggs. When they hatch they will imprint on the hen but will jump into the first puddle they come to and mama will be beside herself because baby chicks and water don't mix.

One of my dad's often used expressions was,"nervous as a hen with a litter of ducks".
