I want to buy a duck. Is there anyone near 94070? I am looking for any kind of duck (has to be cute though) but I prefer if it was a male and did not fly :drool:
What breed are you after? Also are you looking for a duckling? My suggestion is to get a Pekin duckling because they are the most domesticated and make better pets than the other breeds...they are the white ones. They can't fly either. It will be hard to get a duckling around this time of year though, most places only sell them in Spring.
Also, any reason why you are after a male duck? The hens are much calmer and make better pets.
When you finally have a duck, this site has some great info on raising pet ducks.
even if your joking about actually hitting an animal in the eye
with any laser let alone a high mw one not really that funny
you are joking right ?
ARM ducks! Issue goggles.
Quack. Quack.
( ON the other hand, Peeking Duck is really good. Did they change their moniker to Be-Jing duck?ops )
The Pekin males and females look pretty much exactly the same, they are all white so there are only some very minor differences between them. In most breeds of ducks the males do look cooler, but none of those breeds will make such a good pet as a Pekin so the trade off is worth it IMO.
Pretty much all ducks are nearly full grown after 30 days, that's not just a characteristic of a Pekin. They aren't completely done growing till about a year though. Ducks are so much more fun as adults than ducklings because they don't require as much work and they can walk around with you without getting tired very easily.
If you want them to be a good pet you have to give them a lot of attention in their first month of life, especially in the first week. Let them follow you around and talk a lot around them so they imprint on that.
Do you really think that I would hit a duck with my car, shoot a blinding laser in it's eye, paint it and varnish it, and ground ship it to the OP? I'm a decent guy who wouldn't hurt aeven if your joking about actually hitting an animal in the eye

Maybe the duck could be a mascot in the UC Davis animal husbandry dept. If you don't find out first though, you will have to give your friend away.
