Hi Claudia.
I don't have too much experience with ducks as pets and don't plan to. I have two dogs and two cats...I don't think that scenario would work out for us!

But, I did want to relay a funny story. When I was a freshman in college (Clemson, in SC), my roommate, Renee, had gone shopping in a nearby town. It was around Easter time and she saw baby ducks at a store. Well, there was one she felt real sorry for as he was kind of getting the rough treatment from the others...and you got it. He came home with her. Home was our dormitory, and we kept that baby duck in our room for weeks! Talk about a "stink". He did stink. But he was in heaven. He got to swim in the bottom of our vaporizer. I wish I had a scanner and I could show you proof of this funny incident. Well, baby duck was released later at the Clemson Botanical Gardens, where there is quite a big pond. It was getting to the point where we were going to be caught, hoarding an animal in our dorm room!

The thought of a duck as a pet really doesn't appeal to me personally, but you did bring back some wonderful memories.
