Looking for some tips and advice on breeding Ancona Ducks looking at buying a small flock of 5 drakes and 14 ducks but I don't know a great deal about them. Is there any think odd about them I need to know

Cheers
Norm

They are as easy to keep and breed as mallards or mallard rouens or muscovy so if you have those just feed them the same

Yeh I have muscovy and indian runners and they are all healthy on what I feed them so thats good. I was hoping they were an easy duck as I don't have much experience with ducks but am keen on them and they are not too expensive

Thanks for the help

I had the Ancona for a couple years they bred out of control so keep an eye on them if they are free range or you will end up with 100's
