These are hard to tame birds but are some of the most colorful of all ducks found wild. These are small ducks and are considered to be miniature breeds of ducks, also are the smallest of domesticated ducks. The Gray Call and the White Call were used long ago to lure hunters. These ducks are very loud when calling their mates. Be careful with just-hatched Calls as they are quite dedicated.
Calls are good setters but like to be left alone.
This is an older breed with a lustrous, greenish-black appearance. It is linked only to the Mallard, has the same sex-feathers as the Mallard and the domestic breeds that originated from the wild Mallard. This is a very good egg layer. It will molt twice a year. This is the most common of ducks, especially for ponds, and weighs about 36 ounces for a young drake and is classified as a bantam.
