The origin is different.

There are big differences in prices from different sources, and imported ones are definitely more expensive than domestic ones. In 2022, the current price of a Cole duck baby is 1,200-1,500 yuan, while the price of a newborn baby is 68-88 yuan. Adult Cole ducks are much more expensive. Imported pure Cole ducks cost tens of thousands of yuan each, while domestic ones are cheaper, usually around 1,500-2,000 yuan each.

The Cole duck is a new breed of pet duck, which is different from ordinary ducks. Ordinary ducks can breed several ducklings in one nest, but the number of Cole ducks is much smaller because their reproductive capacity is very low and artificial assisted breeding is required. As a result, things are somewhat expensive, which is also the reason why the price of Cole duck is high.
