Well I don't think we've ever seen one that way so it would be a first.

Are you as OCD about your own weight? maybe we need a pic of you on the scales

Thanks! How very cool, so when I breed him to some chocolate females I'll get more chocolate males. I also read somewhere that males without white are desirable? Is that true? I hope so, lol, 'cause he's solid and so are a bunch of the hens!

My first duck ever is a solid chocolate muscovy male. I didn't know they were so rare. He has no white on him anywhere. He is solid brown. Is that unusual?

I've bred hundreds of Muscovy ducklings and this is the first time I've seen a chocolate male. I'm a novice Muscovy breeder, so I have no idea what the norm is.
