This superior type of duck has good quality meat, is tender and tastes delicious. Nowadays, lots of people like fried duck and roast duck, so consumer demand is increasing and duck cultivation has become a promising business. I explain some of the superior ducks available below:

- Peking duck or water bird
Peking duck is a duck that is one of the most popular types of cut duck. Ducks originating from China and then imported to America in 1870 have predominantly white physical characteristics with yellow beaks and feet. This duck grows very quickly, just care for this duck for 2-3 months and its weight can reach 2.5-3.5 kg. Peking ducks are made using meat specifically raised for food. Ducks are fattened by providing nutritious food, when the ducks are full, then the breeder puts food into the duck's throat so that these ducks are also known as stuffed ducks.

2.Alabio Duck
This type of duck is known to originate from the North Hulu Sungai Regency area of South Kalimantan. This duck itself is the result of crossbreeding between Kalimantan ducks and Peking ducks. Male Albino ducks are dark brown or black gray in color and have feathers that curl outward on their tails. Meanwhile, the female is grayish yellow brown with a combination of white spots and the tip of the chest, wings and head has a black streak.
This duck has an extraordinarily elegant appearance that is different from other local ducks. We will detail the physical characteristics of this duck one by one;
1. Has a dark yellow beak.
2. Duck feathers have a mixture of white, black, gray and brown.
3. The duck's posture is slim and upright.
4. Duck legs and feet are dark yellow
5. The tips of the wings and breasts of female ducks are black.
Not only does it look, but this duck also has the ability to produce abundant eggs and thick meat, so many breeders choose to keep this duck. Alabio duck eggs can be harvested in six months and their productivity lasts up to three years. For anyone who wants to keep or breed these ducks, get to know them first before buying and don't make a mistake.

3.Mojosari Duck
Mojosari duck is a type of cut duck originating from Mojokerto, East Java. This duck is identical with its reddish feathers, variations of brown, black and white and black beak and feet. We also need to know that this duck can be used as a laying duck because its egg production can reach 230 to 265 eggs per year. This duck is very popular among egg business people because its cultivation is profitable and can be large in terms of profits. The weight is around 1.7 kg on average.
Characteristics of the Mojosari duck:
- Mojosari ducks lay their first eggs at the age of 6 months
- The productive period can be up to 3 periods
- Production of these ducks is stable and abundant after 7 months of age

4.Bali Duck
Balinese ducks are often referred to as penguin ducks, which are unique cut ducks because they walk very much like penguins. The distinctive feature of this duck is that it has a crest on its head and a yellow beak. Not only that, Bali ducks are also often used as ornamental ducks because they have shiny feathers and a unique crest on their heads.
The characteristics of Balinese ducks are that they have an upright body, tend to be slender but their demeanor is not like that of Indian ducks. Another characteristic, apart from having a crest, is that the Bali duck has a short neck with a narrow rear body. Adult male ducklings usually weigh up to 2 kg while the weight of female ducks is usually 1.8 kg.
