Choosing duck breeds
So, I'm learning more about ducks every day. I am looking into getting ducks in a few years. I need to choose breeds, though. I don't want meat ducks, and eggs aren't necessary but I'm not against them. The main reason I might keep ducks is because I think they will be nice pets to keep around...- TwentyOneChickens

Mystery Mutt Duckling... what do you think it is?
On the 30th of last month I was given a 2 day old duckling that had leg problems (it couldn't stand or walk). Long-ish story short, it was niacin deficient but is now perfectly fine and living in a Rubbermaid in my bedroom until my other ducks and geese hatch. The girl who hatched him got the... -
