Has anyone out there ever have any experience with Ancona ducks (not the chickens)? I know they are spotted & are sopposed to be a meat bird. Can anyone tell me the weights of the adult birds, & how well do they lay?Thanks

I have a pair of Ancona ducks, they are pretty rare birds. Once they start laying, they keep going. Meat on the otherhand, I know nothing about. I guess since they aren't so common, most people don't try it out. Who knows. If you have any other questions feel free to email me.
