Many many years ago I got ducks and a couple geese from y local Co-Op. They were aging out of being able to keep them in the store so no heat needed.
Yes it was an impulse buy. I knew the basics of keeping them and had a place in the country with a barn and existing pens.
Fast forward a year and I added chickens.
A few years later I moved back into town so had to rehome everyone. That was very hard on the kids.
We lived without chickens or ducks nearly a decade before my city made them legal.
You bet I was all over that. Hubs not so much.
It took a LOT of nagging but eventually I got my chickens and have never regretted it.
