What should I do? I am so confused. :(

Okay so would you get 2 Mandarin pairs or 2 Cayuga pairs and 1 buff pair? Do I need a coop for either choice? They would not be able to free range so thier aviary for Mandarins would be15x15 and the 3 pairs would also be 15x15. What are your recomendations. I want them to some waht like me & come to me and eggs arent important. I also want to raise them as ducklings, but i know it would be hard to do that with Mandarins

Mandies don't come to you. In fact, they fly away from you if you get too close (usually.) My Cayugas are much calmer...they are easier to raise from ducklings...cheaper and easier to find as ducklings also...That said, I love my beautiful Mandies the most...they are such beautiful ducks and such fun to watch.

Thanks so much! I wish breed picking wasnt so hard!
