Best broody ducks

[Ducks and geese7]

I wanted to get some new ducks. I was wondering which breed of duck will have the most possibility of becoming broody. I want her to lay on the eggs and hatch them.

Muscovies are known for going broody! They would be best option but also buff's seem to be good broodies!

I'll consider muscovies as I have never had one before but they are very beautiful.

Im sure other people will chime in with other great breeds but everyone seems to say muscovy's are the best at going broody and also being mama! Keep us updated

Any Way to tell what duck is a call duck when they are babies. I usually get my ducks at a feed store or at tractor supply in spring and all there ducks are together and they don't know the breed of them. Would I have to get it from someone who breeds call ducks?

I'm pretty sure you will have to locate a breeder. Farm stores don't sell ornamental Ducks.

A believe purely poultry sell call ducklings.
Duckcreekfarm sells adults.

Any idea on how to find people who sell them.
