If you are starting with duck keeping, or just interested in ducks, this video by Tom Bartlett is well worth watching.
“ There is something about ducks that attracts human company,” says Tom Bartlett in this beginner’s guide to duck-keeping. Tom follows the journey of ducklings from incubation through their lives as he explains his own methods of feeding, housing, breeding and generally caring for ducks on the farm and at show. We meet Ross Kent, a beginner whose ambition is to breed quality birds, and with Tom’s guidance Ross prepares for the British Waterfowl Championship.
This is the perfect way to get a thorough grounding in duck keeping, choosing a breed that appeals to you and enjoying some typical duck behaviour at Folly Farm, Gloucestershire in the company of the former President of the British Waterfowl Association.
