Based solely on my personal experience (I also had ducks for pets
as a kid), yes, you can. My mom cooked with them -- she liked them
for cakes, IIRC. These were white Pekin ducks, btw:

Such sweet little things, and so soft! Sadly,we had to get rid of
them when we moved, so we set them free on a local lake. You still
see the occasional Pekin out there today...
