About Duckling
To start, 2 new Ducks are added with Duckling. They don’t have any special mechanics, and can’t be tamed. But they look cute, and can mostly be found spawning in River Biomes.

These spawn as a White Duck and a Mallard. They’ll drop Duck Eggs, which can be used in recipes as a replacement for Chicken Eggs. It’s also possible to find Baby Ducks.

Another creature included with the mod is the Quackling, which looks like the image above. Although they can also spawn with a leaf on their head. To find a Quackling, try searching the Swamps, as that’s where they are. They’ll usually be sitting on a pier fishing.

Right-click the Quackling to trade with it. You’re able to buy items like Fish, Campfires, Fishing Rods, and Holiday Fruit Cake, among other items. Holiday Fruit Cake is a new item included with the Ducklings mod.
