    Is there any way to "tame" a duck?

    Is there any way to "tame" a duck?

    they are brave enough to eat from our hands already, they just run away if we don't have corn and we come close.

    I just had this random question, because most of our ducks are scared of us. Is there any way to really get close to them?

    Wiggles is also a Hinny. He came from our Cayuga drake, and one of the female Muscovies. Here's a picture:

    Hatching Muskovy duck eggs for the first time

    I don't want to candle too much but I see a small yellow spot, I think it might be the bill. He has definitely penetrated the air sac, he is peeping a lot more this morning. I still hear him pecking away at the shell.
