Hatched 5 and handled them a lot, so I was disappointed that they're not that friendly with me. They'll rush at me for food, then turn and run off. Lost 2 to raccoons, so be aware that even large, aggressive drakes are vulnerable. I have a large pond and 10+ Canada Geese come every day. My male Pekin puts his head down and rushes at them and they scatter like bowling pins. He chases my pet geese around and attempts to breed with them. He's the terror of the barnyard, so if you want sweet ducks, aim for females only. Rescued a couple females recently and they integrated nicely. Don't want more, but happy with these. Eggs good, too, but they plop down and lay them anywhere.
