Hey, my muscovy duckling is 1 month old, am i right in saying its a male? I have no other ducklings to compare him to but its looking rather masculine to me 😅 any help is appreciated, thanks

Can anyone help with what colour this little dude might be? Its 3 weeks old 😊

Lost one of my muscovy girls to what i think was a fox, leaving me with a hen and drake. She seems very upset and not her self as those two did everything together. Is it worth getting another female just for her and am i okay with just adding one or do i need to get two? I have sorted an...

It is slightly larger yes, but it seems its still growing as its only started getting the lumps on its face recently, i contacted the breeder and hes not convinced its a male just yet

Thank you for a reply, Would getting another hen be better? Bit gutted as i payed alot for them to have females as i wasn't sure how drakes and cockerels do together, will have to get in touch with the breeder. Thank you, they are beautiful

Hey so first time having muscovys and i adore them, i asked the breeder for two hens and have started to question if one of them is a drake. The main problem i have is the one in question is mating the other and worried its going to drown her, is this is normal for two females? From looking on...

Thanks for the reply! and yeh it looked like it and i feed her pellets and ive always just fed their egg shells back to them. Thank you ill give that a go and see how she is

I Noticed earlier one of my girls was just standing in the corner of the garden with her head down, so i put her in a crate to keep an eye on her, her crop was very empty and she isnt eating, checked on her half an hour later and her poo looks like egg yolk?!? She seemed to have perked up a bit...

No I haven't put her back yet (wanted to make sure she is 100% before I did) and yes they're free range, here's a picture of her droppings it's only started looking like this today, thank you for replying :)

Couple of days ago I noticed one of my hens wasnt eating right and wheezing, I've separated her from the rest and gave her some bread and olive oil and treated her for parasites. And now her poo has gone very watery and green, is this anything to be worried about?? Shes eating normally now...

That's the best I've got of it for now 😊
