Looking for information on keeping a pair of swans on a large dam

The swans are mature and have their wings pined so the cannot fly

What do I need to know?

I have some basic information from the seller but he seems to know very little

The blacks I think are about $200-300 each and the white or mute swan is about $1000 each

Just looking at the black for now maybe after a couple of years experience I may look at the white. Yes $200 for the black not sure about whites but $2000 a pair sound about right
