I have a pair of Show Birmingham Rollers, the female is called Pebbles, and the male is called Captain. They have had two young already (from different batches), the young look a lot like Pebbles but redder. I like them as they look cute, they can be shown if you have the right rings, and they are pretty good flyers (may I add they fly different to my other pigeons). They haven’t had too many young but this year they may have more. I need to get some more birds so they aren’t all in bred.

Muscovy

Pros: Great mothers, lay a lot of eggs, great meat birds, good show birds
Cons: White muscovies are hard to keep clean, can fly
I have kept muscovies for a year or two now, and they have been the most productive duck I have ever had. I keep white, French white and black. The Muscovy is a great dual purpose bird. The females go broody very easy and make great mothers. If you plan on showing muscovies, black is the better colour as they don't get as messy as the whites.

Mallard

Updated
Pros: Easy to get to standard, and show.
Cons: Flighty, don’t lay many eggs
I have kept mallards for a few years now, they are very nice ducks to have around the farm. If you want to keep them as pets you should clip there wings. If you are keeping them as Show birds you should keep them in a secure area and handle them regularly.
Mallards come in multiple varieties such as natural, white and bibbed. Natural are the easiest to keep clean, and white are the hardest to keep clean. This is my review for mallard ducks.
