I currently own 7 hens and 3 roosters! They all live in a nice coop with other breeds! They are very nice and pretty birds and a lot of people are amazed by their feathers and their colors. I originally bought 4 (1 roo and 3 hens) from a breeder who just happened to have a few of them. I bought them and brought them home. They all laid an egg on the way home. The cage got opened and they all got out, They are very agile birds and I had to catch them. Once I got all 4 back into the coop, they seemed to get along with my buff orpington, ancona, silver pheonix's, and some other breeds. I then gathered some of their eggs and hatched them. i got 10 out of 11 to hatch (on my birthday even better) I then raised those and some died, some lived, I sold them all to a person at a swap thing, He raised them up and I just bought them back a couple of days ago. I am very happy to have all the babies of my chickens and I have 3 more in the incubator, This breed, you just have to know what you are doing with them before you get them!! They are a very fun breed though!

These birds are one of the most awesomest and prettiest birds I have owned. I currently only own 1 and her name is Pancake, she is the sweetest bird there is, her heavy weight does not stop her form foraging and getting along with the other hens and roosters, these chickens can make great moms, egg layers, etc. They are also easy if you have an unwanted rooster, there is meat on them. Great birds, very recomended, and easy to care for, maybe not for the smaller coop but just think every 3 regular birds you could have probably about 2 of these fully grown!

I had a muscovy, I did not like him at all, He was huge and had very sharp nails, muscovy's hiss which can get quite annoying! I also thought he looked a little ugly with their red faces, They also flip out when in a cage, small space, or just caught. They are not good for a pet, I dont think, because, kids think of ducks quaking and having them follow you, being able to touch them, and the muscovy doesn't do any of those, they can also fly a little ways, which can be bad! This is just my opinion, and I may have had a bad experience, but I dont think they are a very good breed!
