The ‘Star Ducks’ tells the story of a city reporter who was called in to report a ‘strange plane crash’ in a village. He finds out that it is in fact, an alien landing and that the aliens had contacted the Alsop couple in the village.

He was told by the Alsops, that the aliens had visited earlier and they had exchanged space eggs for chicken eggs. Now they had come back for more as the chicken eggs given earlier did not hatch. When the reporter asks what had become of the space eggs, he was told that they hatched into Star Ducks!

‘Star Ducks’ was written by Bill Brown (born 1910), who was an American journalist and short story writer.
