I have a friend who's trying to get her parents to get her 2 pet ducks. I recommended Cayuga, Pekin and Call ducks. What else do you guys recommend? She also would like to know how to convince them to get the ducks.
 
First of all, has she researched them? If she hasn’t then she’s not ready. When I say research, I mean tons of research. Not just a quick couple of google searches.
They are extremely messy and their water will need cleaning everyday. They need water deep enough to dip their whole faces in it. They need a large coop and space to run and require a lot of cleaning. They’re probably the most messy animal I’ve ever owned.

What will she keep the ducks in? Will she clean the mess everyday? Does she have enough room? Does she have time to spend with them? Does she have the money to care for them?

There’s a lot more than ducks than just convincing someone to get them.
