Friendly Duck Breeds?

[Littledinostaurs]

Wanting to get some ducks mainly ones that can fly but also some that can’t and I’m wondering what ducks would be the best to keep as pets and them be friendly and not skidish

For male and female flocks or just hens for eggs?

 

[Littledinostaurs]

Both males and females just to have not for eggs

I'm curious - why do you want ducks that can fly?
I've read Muscovy ducks are some of the friendliest ducks and the females can fly. Mine are not friendly but it's probably because I didn't hand-raise them. They are more curious than friendly.

Why do you want flying ones? It's very possible that they will fly away and you won't be able to get them back

Where I live ducks that can’t fly are at a higher chance of getting killed so it would be best for them to be able to fly and I just like watching the ducks fly

They'll likely fly away and not come back though.

I’ve had mallards before and even though they could fly they wouldn’t leave I’ve brought them to my pond at my house and they just flew back to the coop

@Cayugagirls do you read as well that Cayugas can’t fly because they’re too heavy and laugh and laugh? Lol
My drake is the one that can clear buildings and distances

To answer friendly flying ducks just to have I’d say Call Ducks, a lot of hatcheries have them in colors, too.
