French improved breeding stock that will produce birds which are 50% larger than our American Muscovy. Drakes can weigh 12 pounds in 12 weeks. {edit} Muscovy are quackless and the hens are the best broodies you'll ever meet. A handful of these lovely ladies and you'll never need your incubator again! (Unless you're like me and have 200+ eggs in the 'bator)
I love love love them! My breeders are the absolute friendliest poultry in the barnyard! They enjoy their treats, love to be petted and meet me at the gate every day waggin their tails the whole way.

Muscovy are really fun birds... I love the girls quiet little trill and Big Boy meets me at the duckbarn door each night when I come out to lock them up. He does his "huff huff huff" and I scratch the back of his head, give him a pat and say "goodnight ducks". I always say I don't want to be late for my date with Big Boy - LOL!
Here's my friend digging worms with the Muscovy girls:
They hop right into the hole while you dig with the trowl - LOL!
i know they are great birds, they will eat what ever doesn't eat them first. Great for any farm to help keep 'unwanted' things around... I will have to get up with you and get some duckie eggs can't right now
girls ain't laying like they should due to the heat....
I'll take them and offer
6+ White Crested Black Polish Standards
(Forgot I had these and their laying like Crazy)
I'll get Pictures tonight if They don't get taken by then.
