I am going to be getting ducklings this summer and I am torn between these two breeds. Anyone who has experience with either of these two breeds please tell me which one you would recommend. I can only pick one though. Also please tell me why you would choose one over the other.
There's the two contestants. If you are not familiar with duck breeds the Runner is the first one and the Pekin is the second one. I am going to be ordering them in a week or two from when I'm posting this, so there's not much time!
PLEASE VOTE!
Any advice would be appreciated!
Also, if you have any recommendations for duck breeds besides the two of these, I am always open to new ideas!
What I am looking for in a duck:
-sweet and gentle
-doesn't fly (I don't think either do)
-I will not be using them for meat so that doesn't matter
-laying eggs would be great but if they don't lay too much that's fine
Also, they will be free range most of the day but when I'm gone or for the night they will be inside my 4 seasons room. It is practically outside, so it's not THAT gross.
