So you want a breed that can fly 6 feet vertical or can't fly vertical?

All ducks swim good

Flying 6 foot vertical
mallards
or call ducks


not flying 6 foot vertical
Rouens
(or pretty much any other domestic breed for that matter since none can fly very well if even at all)


Are you wanting something to put on a creek or something with a 6 foot bank by chance?

Funny you say that, one of my runners is the same way. The others adore the water, but he just likes a quick dip too. Even when they were little ducklings, he would be the first one peeping to get out of the tub and trying to jump over the edge. he loved to cuddle in the towel in my lap until the others were done.

Mine ended up with the name 'Chicken' because he was soo afraid of water as a duckling! Unfortunately he became bear food last weekend. Aparently the bear wanted Chicken when he broke into the duck coop!

I have a mallard that doesn't like to swim but she is just odd.... i'm pretty sure her oil gland is not working correctly

Same here with my runner.
