    Muscovy keepers share your pics!

    You know what... Two of them actually have a browner shade to their fuzz than the other three, and on their neck/stomach where they are growing feathers, there is a brown tint to it. I'm not an expert, but at least one may end up chocolate

    Sorry, don't think so. Both mom and dad were black and white pied I believe. But they are still gorgeous and extremely personable

    5 Beautiful Six Week Old Muscovy Ducks! Houston area

    Hello all, I have 5 extremely friendly six week old muscovies. I hatched and raised them myself, and they are literally the sweetest things ever! Unfortunately I can no longer keep them, and want to give them to someone who can care for them and keep them safe and happy. If you are that...

    I posted these pics in the incubation thread after they hatched, but they seem more suitable here. Can't wait for them to grow up :)

    Incubation progress of Muscovy eggs

    So, here are the babies!!! I am absolutely in love with them. It's a bummer the 6th one didn't make it, especially when it was so close. They are all almost identical, so unfortunately naming them is out of the question (which sucks because I had been thinking of some cute names...

    With these guys, even when I put my finger in the brooder the scamper away. With my previous two muscovies, they never passed the opportunity to nibble on my fingers whenever they had the chance. And these definitely can't be anything other than muscovies. EDIT: oh btw, the last two eggs...

    This isn't really about eggs and incubation, but I'd like to get some input from some fellow muscovy enthusiasts: For some reason, the three ducklings that have hatched get very startled by me, especially when I hover over the brooder. In general, it doesn't seem like they are as imprinted on...

    Lacrystol, both of those guys are now out!! And no, that one didn't pip on the wrong end. It had just pipped toward the floor of the incubator rather than upward. Kathy told me to flip him over, so I gave it a 180 degree turn. This morning when I checked, his beak was farther out and wiggling...

    Finally got a hold of my camera and managed to get a decent pic. What do you think?

    Incubation progress of Muscovy eggs

    Okay, I just flipped it over. If I recall correctly, this was the one with a small air sac. I think he may not have room to wiggle around and zip in there. I'm planning on helping it out if it doesn't make any progress by the end of the night. Is that a sound decision, or am I just being rash?

    The hole is on that X, with the beak hanging out upside down, facing the floor of the incubator.

    Should I flip it over so the hole is facing up? Should I help it? Please help!!!
