FROM Peking duck to glorious rich sponge cakes and bright yellow omelettes, ducks can bring pleasure to your palette. Or even just for relaxation and entertainment it is hard to beat watching ducks on a pond go about their business. From the tiny Mandarin Ducks to the Mamouth Muscovies, there is bound to be a duck for you. And you don't necessarily have to have a pond either. I will start with breeds of duck to help you decide, which duck is for you, then move onto their housing, feed and water requirements. Ducks for dinner Pekin: white, approximate weight drakes 4 - 5kg (live) ducks 3.5kg (live) fast growing, plenty of succulent breast meat, is a flightless duck. Muscovy: comes in white/black/blue and a combination of the above. Sizes varies from the farmyard variety of around 5kg to the Mamouth Muscovies up to 10kg. Slower growing then the Pekin, Muscovies can fly. Other breeds may be eaten but they don't have a lot of meat compared to the first two. The egg-laying ducks mentioned are all flightless ducks so you don't need to worry about them taking to the skies. Indian Runners: their name describes them well. They are upright ducks shaped like a wine bottle. They come in any colour you can imagine and are terrific layers Khaki Campbells and White Campbells were named after Mrs Campbell from England. These ducks are less upright and are also excellent layers, the white Campbell is white with an orange bill and feet, the Khaki Campbell a Brown, Khaki coloured duck. You can expect around 300 eggs per year or more from both the Indian Runner and Campbell ducks. Other laying breeds that don't lay quite as many eggs but are still good layers include: the Buff Orpington, Cayuga (a black duck that turns white with age) Crested (a duck with a hat on its head) Welsh Harlequin (harlequin coloured), Blue Swedish, Silver Appleyard and Elizabeth Duck. The later is the only Australian breed all the others having originated overseas. Ornamental ducks Mallards are most common ornamental duck, they derived from the Wild Mallard crossed with the domestic layer ducks and these days come in white and natural. The Natural drake is amazingly exquisite in his colouring of a brown/grey body and vivid green head with flashes of purple and green on his wings, the female a more plainer motley brown colour. …
