I have Muscovy's so I can spot them pretty easy but the facial skin coming on top of her bill is a dead give away and the fact it's just starting gives us an idea of age. she looks girly to me getting so pics from the side will help also and good front views with legs included will also help. I love the tail wag too it's so sweet.Now I have a question for the experts - how can you tell it's a muscovy & what sex?? Thanks in advance, Sue
? they can passed early stage extra niacin addition is not needed, ducks often eat chicken growers and layers. I can tell you this all my ducks do and are perfectly fine, i'll even up that and say i prefer my Muscovy NOT be raised on a duck dedicated feed, i do not use my scovies for meat i do not need rapid growth for bulk and quick slaughter.Ducks can't actually eat chicken feed, they need niacin, even as adults. So just put some crushed niacin tablets or brewer's yeast (NOT baking yeast!) in the mix. That's all. :3
Looks like a muscovy pullet, or an adult cross-breed. Muscovies don't have drake feathers, but the males' heads look downright bumpy! She's an adorable little girl, and she seems super friendly towards you. Best of luck!
