Pet Ducks


Ducks can be kept and bred by aviculturists and often displayed in zoos. All domestic ducks are descended from the wild Mallard, except the Muscovy Duck. Many domestic breeds have become much larger than their wild ancestor, with a length from the base of neck to base of tail of 30 cm or more.

Most ducks other than female Mallards and domestic ducks do not "quack".
