Congratulations! Ducks are pretty darn sloppy but cuter than all get out.
They eat a fair share of the bugs and spiders and slugs and fertilize the
area, to boot. How can you beat that?? Did you get them sexed or will it be
a surprise?

The thing I like about ducks is the fact that they love tomato hornworms, no
matter how big the hornworms get. I already had chickens and guineas when I got
a pair of ducks. The chickens and guineas won't always eat the hornworms, but
the ducks will fight over them. The ducks are pretty good bug chasers too. I got
them a bathtub of water in the yard and they stay around.
