im giving you an experiment go to your kitchen get out icecubes wet your hands and touch the ice cube then when your done the qustion will be answered.
good luck! :)
-The truth is sometimes their feet does get stuck to the ice! But for the most part, Ducks don't have many nerves at the ends of their feet- that's why they can swim in freezing cold pond water and seem barely bothered by the extreme temperature-
They also have very few veins/arteries in their feet -meaning little bloodflow and circulation- since blood is warm and in order for something to stick to ice it has to be moist and warm- like a tongue on a frozen electric pole...- the ducks cold feet glide right across the ice.
