    what kind of duck am I?

    When you say bumps on his beak and around his nose you are referring to the caruncles of a Muscovy right? Cause I have 4 Muscovy ducks and actually there guys came from a Muscovy mom. Well that's what they were with when I bought them. And to answer the bump question no they do not have them...

    what kind of duck am I?

    Thanks! And I've seen pictures of cayugas and thought they really look a lot like them. Do they make a hissing sound or more of a quack?

    what kind of duck am I?

    Oh, I've tried to do that but it tells me there was an error. Might have something to do with the fact that I am using my android smartphone as that's my only internet. What a bummer:(

    what kind of duck am I?

    I am not sure what breed the black one is. I have another one but was hiding at picture time. They both have beautiful green/blue sheen on their wings and the most gorgeous purple sheen on their head. I was told when I bought them that they were Muscovy. Well I know that they can't be full...

    brewer's yeast tablets...how many per gl of water?

    I bought some Brewer's yeast tablets to put in my ducks water and I keep reading that I should put 150mg per gallon of water. I can't seem to find anywhere on the bottle where the mg are so I was curious if anyone knew how many tablets instead?

    What's better to raise, Mallard or Rouen?

    Not that I have been able to do. I have to wait until they are 2-3 months old when they start getting their true colors. They all look like females at first and then you will notice that the males will start changing color. Oh I almost forgot...the females are talkers as the males are quite. One...

    What's better to raise, Mallard or Rouen?

    I have both mallard and rouen. My mallards are excellent free ranging ducks even though they do fly. But Tue first time seeing them take their first flight is just incredible. It was almost like watching my child take their first steps! And as they older,stronger and braver they fly for longer...

    will she sit on them and hatch them?

    If I'm touching the eggs to mark them that wont scare her from coming back to her nest will it? Or should I wear gloves so my scent isn't all over her nest and eggs?

    will she sit on them and hatch them?
