Re: owning a duck

I can't answer your question but seeing as you've not had a reply yet The Pet Duck Association might be a help to you

The Pet Duck and Goose Association (PDGA)

Re: owning a duck

We had 3 ducks. Two Aylsebury and one aylesbury cross.. They were al very noisy and we had no grass left through them.. My younger sis used to have fresh duck eggs every morn for brekkie..

We had Quackers, Lady and Trampy (she was the cross). Quackers thought he was a dog, he used to run round to the front door if someone knocked on it.. He also used to give my mum cuddles..

Personally I don't like birds(am scared of them), but my mum and sis loved the ducks.
As lovely as Quackers was with my mum, he did have a habit of chasing me, I used to find it quite scary.

Good luck wit your ducks.
