These birds are perfectly adapted to aquatic lifestyle. They exploit a variety of food sources available from quiet waters of lakes, ponds, marshes and small rivers. The common food of these birds is aquatic plants, small fish and amphibians, insects, worms, and mollusks. A wide flat beak of a duck is suited for dredging. Species that don’t have a flat beak can dive deep underwater for food. They are mostly sea birds. Diving ducks are much heavier than dabbling ducks. Though these birds have many predators, including humans, they are common throughout the world and are highly spread farm birds.

As a rule, these birds look for a mate in winter. Just like in many other birds’ species, duck males attract the females with their bright colorful plumage. The nests are built by females with reeds or even in a hole in a tree. The territory near the nest is guarded by the male who chases away other couples. The female usually lays from 5 to 12 eggs; only females incubate the eggs. Normally, the eggs will hatch within 28 days. Buy chicks from a breeder that has documented his/her work with pictures.
