    What's your favorite thing about ducks?

    I'm thinking about getting a couple pekins this spring, but all I get from family and friends are that all ducks do is eat and poop. Isn't that what all animals do ? So what are your favorite and least favorite things about owning ducks? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    What breed is my chick? Is it a girl?

    This it Ellanor. She is about 5 months old. I was told by the people I bought her from she was a Wyandotte but by the pics I've seen on google don't really look like her. So if she isn't a Wyandotte than what is she? And I think she is a girl but I just want to be sure. Thanks!
