Thank you. I really love muscovies and get so excited when they hatch out different colors.
Fredi loved to lay on her back and get her feet rubbed. Her mother had rolled her out of the nest(as an egg) the day she was hatching and when my DH found her she was half out of the egg and very close to death. Her mother didn't want her because she was hatching a week and 1/2 before the others. Any ways, Ferdi thought of us as her parents and she loved it when we "preened her" and she would flip over to get her feet rubbed lol
Here is a few pics of her

Sadley Ferdi was hurt by we believe a bob-cat and died of her injuries, but before she was attacked she had layed 3 eggs in a nest and I incubated them. I have 2 daughters from her and one looks a lot like her. The third egg was a dudd.
Ok I have rambled and now took over this thread; Sorry
I had these three guys come into my yard this morning and were visiting my Muscovies. They are cuties my Drake's were not happy about them coming in and neither were there ladies so they weren't visiting long
