Can you add a duck to a pen where one duck has always been by herself?

generally, yes. Many ducks like to have a friend and will get used to having someone else in the pen with them. at first, she may get a little territorial, but that is ok! she is just developing a pecking order and letting the new duck know who's boss. If the new duck is quite small and is getting picked on too much, I would wait until it is about 3/4 the size of the adult duck before you introduce it into the pen. That way it can stand up for itself if it has to.

How much food does a male drake duck need to eat a day?

Read my Care & Feeding page for basic duck and duckling feeding information.

Contrary to popular belief, bread and crackers are a dangerous food for ducks - occasional feeding of this is so-so, but your duck will suffer malnutrition if proper feeding is ignored. Chocolate is NOT safe for ducks and dogs. Avoid nuts and seeds. Duck have a different digestive system than most other birds and can't handle many of the same foods that are safe for some birds.

What they can eat off the menu: Aside from pelleted mash, their staple food (what they eat on a daily basis), they enjoy vegetable trimmings, algae, plants, snails, meal worms, night crawlers, coy food, feeder goldfish, and expensive landscaping.

Chopped, hard-boiled eggs are good for a treat. Some foods that are OK for adults are not particularly safe for a duckling, especially anything containing breads and certain dry foods, so check with your vet first.

Ducks in the wild eat a variety of plants, insects, and native foods that will differ from region and from breed to breed. Humans should never feed any ducks, including wild ducks. Read why

What animal in Australia has a bill like a duck?

The duck-billed platypus.

However, it must be said that the platypus is not actually called a duck-billed platypus at all. Some may consider that the platypus has a bill like a duck, but the term "duck-billed platypus" is a complete misnomer. Its bill does not look like a duck's bill, being flatter and much broader, and made of a totally different substance; nor does it serve the same function as a duck's bill, having very unique properties such as electroreception.
