An Absolute Beginner's Guide to Raising Backyard Ducks: Breeds, Feeding, Housing and Care, Eggs and Meat

I think this is a great little book for beginners, being a beginner myself and having looked after a friend’s ducklings for a week as my vast experience I thought it covered the basics well, in plain English and had attractive pictures and easy sections to follow. Great little guide for the wannabe duck ownerI received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Beautifully laid out, very detailed, great information for beginners. Overall excellent book and highly recommended!

I am getting ready to live in an agricultural community far away from zoning and HOAs. Two things I’ve always wanted, chickens and DUCKS! For me this book has been informative (in a very easy to understand discussion) and really helpful in my decisions and planning for my ducks. I don’t have them yet but I fully expect to and feel this book with be a continued resource moving forward

We inherited 3 ducks recently, found this book very easy to read, grandkids enjoying as well. Good book to start out.

This book answered every question I had and gave me all the information I need going into keeping ducks. Gail is very thorough in explanations and options given. 10/10 recommend this book to anyone considering getting ducks and even people who have been doing it for a long time. This really put my mind at ease and made me feel like I'm prepared and knowledgeable about my new pets.

Great book and shows pics - which I love !
