Here's the blow-by-blow as I teach myself (I hope!) how to make a durable, articulating duck bill.

 

Grease it up with petroleum jelly, cover it in plaster and make a negative. Fill that with liquid latex, and pull the rubber positive...

...in order to shape the lower bill (the manda-bill? sorry)

   
git it jess so... then take  away the upper bill (the max-bill-a?), put a form around the lower bill, the object of our casting (done w/ coffee can here), and cast it, too (pour plaster in), and create a negative to fill with latex.
