Summary Of all the pets that you can have, the duck is one of the most interesting one. These pets are different from regular pets like cats or dogs as they are not the most expressive of the lot. However, they have the ability to be the perfect companions as they can be calm and quite attached to their owners. Ducks are not mere companions. They serve a dual purpose when you bring them home. In addition to being ornamental additions to your backyard, they also provide a steady source of income if taken good care of and reared properly. Most duck owners make a good profit from the egg laying ability of the ducks that they have at home. However, whether you want to make money out of your flock or you just want them for companionship, the responsibility is the same. This book takes you through all the essentials of having a duck at home. This book informs you about the right breeding and keeping conditions that you must have in order to have a healthy flock in your home. There are also several health considerations with ducks that I have discussed in detail. The most important thing that you will learn from this book is choosing the right breed for your requirements.
