We raised a variety of call ducks, Paekeens lol, raised a duck I can't even spell, ha ha), Indian Runners, and "Scobies". I must say, my husband and I HATED the Scobies. They are so mean to the others, and killed some of our ducks trying to breed them, they wouldn't stop, and just tore them up. Also, they tore around the edges of our small pond so much that it started breaking the sides down. If we get the property again, hubby and I want to get the Indian runners and some little call ducks again. I don't know if it is common or not, but it was soooo funny... the ducks played a game alot. One duck in the water would raise up as high as it could, and swoop back down, when that duck came down, all the rest would copy. It was different ducks that led, so it wasn't a male or female thing.
Anyways, we miss them, they were fun.
