I think little kids love baby ducks even more so than baby chicks. My little boy saw a pic of a baby duck, and said 'I want a baby duck!' Being the best (pushover) mommy in the world, and since my silly ducks still aren't laying, I traded a fish aquarium for some duck eggs!
I think I am getting some goose eggs too. That should be interesting, I haven't hatched ducks or geese yet! The only thing I've done besides chickens is quail, and those didn't do so well.
So I am done hatching eggs from my birds (pretty easy since they've all STOPPED LAYING!!), but I will have 4-6 duck eggs, a couple of goose eggs, and some more eggs from the swap. I'm thinking those are gonna be quail, but won't know for sure till they get here. They're supposed to be here TODAY!!!!
