Book Summary Information

Book Reviews of Storey's Guide to Raising Ducks: Breeds, Care, Health

Book Review: The Best Guide for amateur(or experienced) duck raisers!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Being a complete beginner, I bought this book along with ten mallard ducklings July 2001. They are now completely grown, healthy, pretty, happy, friendly, etc! They are laying eggs and hatching them now, too. Each has it's own distinct personality. One's even a lap duck!

I really recommend ducks as pets, livestock, or decoration. If you have the time and money, you should buy your own little flock. They will be so much fun, and with this book, you'll keep them happy.
