Ducklings aren't that expensive the lowest price you can find is a$1.00 or $1.50. Try looking in your phone book or doing a websearch for a feed store or farm in your area.
Here's some sites where you can find Ducklings or Adult ducks.

www.gotpetsonline.com
www.eggbid.com
If you're thinking of adopting try this site

you might be better with a baby goose they are friends only to the one that feed them
actually here in Australia I bought 6 8 week old ducklings for 24 dollars day olds should be cheaper
good luck

get more than one... they're not designed to be alone. and really, once you have one, 5 - 10 more don't make much difference. attend some fairs and talk to the judge and some exhibiters, they may have smaller #'s or know of some swap meets you could attend. for supplys and if you want a larger number, try http://www.mcmurrayhatchery.com
I highly recommend them.
