Is a pet a good idea? 🐥⬇️
The most expensive thing in this list, I think is veterinary clinics in the United States. If your pet gets sick you will spend a lot of money. If your pet is exotic ( pet ducks are exotic ) you will spend A LOT OF MONEY 💰
Unfortunately, many vets will not see ducks or other poultry, because they simply do not have the experience. If you can find a vet that specializes in avian care, that's wonderful! And if you can't, chances are you can still find a vet that is willing to try to help you. If you do find one, expect to spend about $80-$120 for a basic duck check-up.

Call Ducks are the smallest Domestic Ducks 🎈🐥
The call duck is a small breed of duck raised primarily as pets. They're about half the size of multi purpose duck breeds like khaki campbell or mallards, so they're often a good option for people with limited space. Not so great if your space is limited due to neighbors though as these are not quiet birds!
Not a whole lot is known about how the breed came to be exactly, but speculation is that they may have originated in the far east. Call ducks first appeared on the scene in the Netherlands where they were used as a decoy duck. The hunter would use the call ducks to well...'call' to other ducks. This would lure wild ducks into funnel traps or to where the hunters could shoot them.
The gray and white call duck varieties were added to the Standard of Perfection in 1874. In 1935 the use of call ducks in hunting was banned here in the states. Incidentally the first patent for a wooden duck call was submitted in 1870 which made the use of live duck 'decoys' in hunting unnecessary anyway. Call ducks are currently used mostly as pets and as exhibition birds, winning more shows than any other duck breed!
