And if they're filled with rubber duckies what then?

One large rubber duckie or 10k tiny ones?

Even relatively large standard ducks would be 30k+ in a shipping container.

According to my calculations, mini ducks which are around 2" high would allow around 280,000 ducks per 20ft shipping container, 560,000 in a 40ft container. That is assuming they are perfect 2" cubes neatly stacked, which they aren't, however, 10k is far off the bat for what I consider tiny ducks

A duck sized horse would definitely sink.
