Chickens or ducks

Which make better pets? I don't want a lot of either so which works better in smaller groups, are easier to keep. I think ducks are cuter but I'd be afraid that living on the water they'd swim away? I only want like 2 or 3 and there's a chicken coop on the farm already.

...what the attraction of a chicken or a duck would be as a pet?

If you get them as a baby and raise them there I believe they come back to the same spot every year if they do leave.

I'm not exactly sure what the attraction is other than they're small and I can keep them close to the house. I don't want goats or anything like that that I'd have to keep out in the barn and let out in a field.
