Is there a website that list all the pros and cons for each duck breed? I just purchased two mallards. They are apapproximately 3 days old and are the most skittish/nervous poultry I've ever owned. I'm considering rehoming them if they are not able to warm up to me. These little guys will not let me hold them or pet them. If I approach their brooder they run away. My quail are extremely friendly and social. They will let me hold them and even fall asleep in my hand. They also follow me in the yard. I put one of the older quail chicks with the mallards and they seem to be not as nervous as they were before, but still won't approach me. I've always loved ducks, but I don't think I can keep an animal that wants nothing to do with me or people.
