Most domesticated ducks are descended from the wild mallard and over the centuries many different breeds have been created.
They have been kept as pets, or for their ornamental value, or have been farmed for their meat, eggs and down.
In The Domestic Duck, Chris and Mike Ashton explain how these breeds have been developed and how to look after them.
Contents include: Breeds, their origins and characteristics; Classic ducks from all over the world; 'Designer' ducks of the twentieth century; Management of adult stock; Breeding and rearing ducklings; Common problems and ailments.
Fully illustrated with over 170 black & white photographs and 35 colour photographs depicting examples of the pure breeds and all aspects of their management, this is the essential manual for all duck-keepers.
