Males are usually more brightly colored than females that are plain and brown. These birds can survive in a wide variety of habitats; they naturally have one universal need: water. One of the common farm ducks is the Pekin Duck. Hens usually lay about nine to thirteen eggs in a clutch with a daily interval. The incubation period lasts for 27 to 28 days. Only females take part in incubating the eggs. The ducklings all hatch within 24 hours, usually during the day. Chicks for sale look delightful in a photo; a set of pictures is even more beautiful.
