Domestic and oranmental ducks don't do well together due to diseases. Just throwin that out there. But it sure sounds like good choices to have. I love mandies and ringed teal, and one day will have white faced.

Yup the white faces are my favorite ducks i have they are very unique colorful and kinda comical i love mine

How many of each do you have? 30 X 50 is not much space for the larger geese if you have more than a pair...... they can be very dirty when they strip off all grass and leave just dirt in the smaller areas.
W/o the larger geese, that size might be fine for a few pairs of the ornamental ducks and smaller birds. Cranes need a lot of space and I would not recommend them for beginners, they can be hard to handle( will peck at your eyes, mouth when trying to handle them) and very sensitive to other fowl/ worms/ diseases.

1 pr of sebbies and canadians 7 call ducks 6 woodies 4 manddies pair of white faced and pair of ringed teal

You still may have disease problems....just sayin.

I would not mix the two. First the geese and domestic ducks will eat everything you plant in your pen and you will have a big mud hole.

Second.. The call ducks will breed with your Woodies and ring teal and you will have all kinds of crosses.
With the ornamental waterfowl, I try to have a 10x10 area per pair of birds or 100sqft. My pen is 125x75 or 9,375sqft and I have 75+ pair of birds in my pen and that is alot. All of mine are the ornamental waterfowl and they stay in teh water or the shade all the time. My pen is half water too.

With the geese I would have at least a 20x20 area per pair. My Sebbies chase everything, including the wild candians off the 1 acre pond we have during feeding time.

I would personally go for only one or the other type of birds in your pen and my that I mean the domectic stuff or ornamental.

And during breeding season if you tried having Sebbies and White face in the same pen..you would probably end up with some hurt or dead birds. They are both very aggressive during breeding seeason and after the babies are born. My tree ducks (Fulvous, White Face, Eyton and Black Belly) attack everything including us in the pen during these months... Even if they don;t have babies they will gang up with the ones that do.
