Boy are you in the right place - and your duck is gorgeous! They can pant when they are hot. I've never had an indoor duck but plenty of people on here have. My only advice would be if you get more than one or two at a time they won't be...

I had a guy come and buy guineas from me - He asked if I had seen a feather with a heart. He has fifty guineas and said they're hard to find. He makes jewelry out of guinea feathers. Since he left I look for hearts every morning - Here...
