ABSOLUTELY! I just bought my first duck two weeks ago and since I've been spending hours with him every day, taking care of all his needs, he now thinks I'm his mother. He literally "calls" me and has a way of "talking" to me through his little "cheep cheep" sounds. He always responds to my voice and runs to jump into my lap every time he thinks danger is near. It warms my heart every time. : ) I have often heard it said that the first "thing" a duckling sees is (to him) his "mother." I will add, however, that it is extremely important you spend plenty of loving time with your baby duck in order to win his trust and affection. From what I've read, you can really get a loyal pet out of a duck if you take the time to be his surrogate mom. : ) So yeah, ducks do imprint if you make it possible! ; )

Some studies say they imprint to a slight degree but they actually do not imprint significantly in anyway.

What is the difference between a fossil and an imprint?

A fossil is the preserved remains or traces of a once-living organism, while an imprint is a mark or indentation left behind by an organism on a surface. Fossils can include imprints, but not all imprints are considered fossils. Fossils provide more detailed information about the organism's structure and biology, while imprints are more surface-level.


Will chickens kill humans or humans will kill chickens?

Ok, so. If chickens were to imprint on humans we would possibly already have a chicken/human race, because I bet you a sum of money that there are some sick freaks out there who've tried sleeping with one. I don't know all about human sperm and chicken embryos but there is a chnce. as long as you have imagination. :)
