Unlike chickens where the male is the noisy one; female ducks are normally the ones who ensure there's never a dull moment. Ducks will not announce the sun coming up like a cockerels crow but they can find lots of reasons throughout the day to quack. Male ducks tend to be the quietest and sound a little as if they are trying to quack but have a cold, resulting in a quacky rasp.
If you are thinking of keeping ducks in your garden and you have neighbours you should bear this in mind. The quietest ducks to consider are the Muscovy and the Campbell.
