I have three welsh harlequins and one Muskovy that are about eight years old -all female. I just gained an almost one year old male Peking today. He lost his mate a couple months ago and was very depressed and that’s how I have him. I am worried that my current ducks are going to destroy him...

Thank you so much! I will do what you said! I know it's "just a duck" as some people would say, but she is my duck- and my baby!:). I always appreciate your quick response and will keep you posted!

Ms Lydia: You have been so helpful in the past and I'm hoping you can help me now. My female Welsh Harlequin is going through molting, (I believe) She looks absolutely pitiful, thin, without many feathers, and lethargic. I don't know if this is normal for a one year old or not. The male that I...

No eggs-that's why I am wondering. I've always thought she was a female, but since she isn't laying I was questioning it. She takes care of my welsh harlequins and is very motherly-I'm very confused! :)

I am trying to figure out if my one year old Musovy is male or female (white one Front left). Thoughts?

The bill is completely round - is that good or bad?:). I have never seen such a calm and loving duckling so I am so anxious to find out what it is! I know absolutely nothing about muskovy's or anything other than Welsh Harlequins, so I guess I better do some research!

I was thinking either that or a Black Magpie - both look a lot a like but I have no background with either. Thanks for the post!

This cutie showed up in our backyard yesterday - no parents to be found. We have two Welsh Harlequins and I know its not that! Any ideas on a breed? Don't think it is a Mallard since the beak is not black....Any help would be great!

Thank you! I've only had them for a week and a half and I'm a very new duck mom, so I'm still doing my research :-)

I thought I was getting two Welsh Harlequin boys, but I think I got one of each. They are about seven weeks old. Any thoughts?
