<P> The Peabody Hotel Group (PHG) operated two additional properties under the Peabody name for many years . The Peabody Orlando, near Orlando, Florida, opened in 1986 as the second Peabody Hotel . It was sold on August 28, 2013 and was renamed Hyatt Regency Orlando on October 1, 2013 . PHG operated a third hotel in Little Rock, Arkansas from 2002, when they assumed management of the former Excelsior Hotel, which was known as The Peabody Little Rock until 2013, when the property became a Marriott . They also operated properties for a number of years under the Hilton name in Greenville, South Carolina and Little Rock, Arkansas . </P> <P> The Peabody is probably best known for a custom dating back to the 1930s . The General Manager of the time, Frank Schutt, had just returned from a weekend hunting trip in Arkansas . He and his friends found it amusing to leave three of their live English Call Duck decoys in the hotel fountain . The guests loved the idea, and since then, five Mallard ducks (one drake and four hens) have played in the fountain every day . </P> <P> In 1940, a Bellman by the name of Edward Pembroke volunteered to care for the ducks . Pembroke was given the position of "Duckmaster" and served in that position until 1991 . As a former circus animal trainer, he taught the ducks to march into the hotel lobby, which started the famous Peabody Duck March . Every day at 11: 00 a.m., the Peabody Ducks are escorted from their penthouse home, on the Plantation Roof, to the lobby via elevator . The ducks, accompanied by the King Cotton March by John Philip Sousa, then proceed across a red carpet to the hotel fountain, made of a solid block of Italian travertine marble . The ducks are then ceremoniously led back to their penthouse at 5: 00 p.m. </P> <P> Over the years, The Peabody Ducks have gained celebrity status with television appearances (along with their Duckmaster) on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, Sesame Street, sitcom Coach and The Oprah Winfrey Show . They have also appeared in People magazine . </P>
