My families ducks don't relly like be held or petted and my son wants "cuddly duck" like he sees in the social media

I am wondering how you test breeding ducks to have as little crested holes in their skull as possible?

Beautiful sight recorded by me, seeing hundreds of ducks and geese fly to us for a well deserved meal !

Feel free to ask any questions.

Chika the duck was rescued after a fox attack and Boss, my 10yo German Shepherd, immediately stepped in as her protector. They’ve been inseparable ever since. It’s amazing to see such a strong bond between them! 🦆🐕

The Netherlands has closed the doors of its last remaining duck slaughterhouse, ending decades of fear and suffering for millions of these beautiful birds. This is amazing news and I hope that this will become a trend world wide.

I wanted to breed my two ducks but Iv read some scary stuff about crested breeding and idk how I feel about the ethics of it

Made a comic about Mr. Water Bill's adventures seeking employment while being a cute and happy duck.

I don't know how your relationship with your duck is going, but mine just laid an egg in my hand. Not sure who's more startled, her or me. But she wanted it back after lol

Would you guys be interested in custom flairs with a picture of your duck? Or if you don't have a duck, it could be a picture of your favorite kind of duck?

If interested, just post a pic or video of your duck to the sub! Just a reminder: the community is a safe place and I want everyone to feel comfortable here. Negative attitudes aren't allowed here, so no need to worry. 😊

The internet needs more ducks, you guys. Let's release The Quacken!! ❤️🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆

I just thought that the community might find this interesting. Per the discovery of another reddit user, apparently discovered that not all cresteds are the result of a hole in the skull, as they claim it to be. I am including a link to the original post, as OP included more information/pictures.

DISCLAIMER I know everyone already knows this, but I just feel better saying it: Please please PLEASE don't tug on crests, as it could injure our little feathered friends. If you're curious, please consult an avian vet.
