Well, Selene, these birds are not pets- being handled by humans
distresses them. While they're quite easy to tame as ducklings, this
crew is all adults who have been allowed to free range since birth,
only coming in at night to the protection of their duck house.

However, since they also aren't very broody, I intend to put a few
eggs with the friendliest of my banty hens next spring, and then we
will see what we will see, insofar as pettable ducks goes.
