Male or female muscovy ducklings??
Oh and they won't start huffing (males)or trilling (females) until about hmm I think Speedy was 2 or 3 months when she started trolling and calling to fancy. I honestly dont remember when fancy first started huffing, all I know is one day it was like magic suddenly he wasn't scared of me anymore... -
Male or female muscovy ducklings??
I didnt either, when i first found Speedy i thought she was male cause she was so aggressive and protective and fancy was a female cause he so timid and scared. They were my first and I think it was cause I was soooo focused on them and trying to be good to them that I paid A LOT of attention to... -
Male or female muscovy ducklings??
I think they are males, too... looking at their bills and feet - males have a more broad bill and kinda sturdier looking feet and legs. -

Extremely creative and sneaky nest makers
That's funny you call her houdini - I had one just like her that I named Donella, she would do the same, she could get out of enclosures areas the others couldn't figure out. Anyhow, one day I was collecting an egg and I had a baby! He grew into a big brat named houdini because of his mom's antics. -

Please help me ! My new ducks have red marks around their necks
How many do you have? You can adjust the food bowl as they grow too. I have so many oh speedy/fancy are to big for these bowls now for both water and food. And they're babies... they just plop down wherever they get tired. :) as they get older they won't do that in the food bowl so much as the... -

Or you could just use a bowl for the feed that they dont need to stick their head into holes. I use bowls - dog bowls, cat bowls, plastic bowls... water bowl is the only one that needs adjusted as they grow. As someone else said they are more then likely getting their heads stuck j in the holes...
