    Rosecomb-Ryan Yes, When you look at the type of a wild Muscovy they are near the same [b : type wise[/b] ,just smaller, then Show Muscovies. Birds you I see today as backyard pets, have a off head and off type for either one. Most people once they see a Show Muscovy want them rather then...

    The blood typing on Muscovy shows there is Comb duck. They could have acquired it in the wild, or in early domestication but it is there. I would have thought someone with your expertise would have known what is in the DNA of the Muscovy.

    I would assume, and of course this is an assumption based on basic genetics, that given the black (blue, Lavender, silver etc) and brown, (chocolate, fawn, cream etc) base and dilutions there of, that do not exist commonly in nature, where of course all of our Muscovy originated, that any bird...

    Whats popular in Muscovy?

    yes, but we know from history that the French did integrate Pekin into the famous french line of Meat type Muscovy. This is more then likely where the majority of white Muscovy most of us own come from.

    Whats popular in Muscovy?

    Because all wild Muscovy are black, and all Muscovy are not black, it would make sence that any non black Muscovy has had influence of other breeds. There are no white, or blue or chocolate Muscovy in the wild either, so somewhere along the line, I agree that any colored Muscovy would yes.. have...

    Other then the fact your an expert.. what makes you think she is a hybred? Hybreds or mules are not fertile.. and this one is.. I also own her parents and they were obviously fertile.. so.. again.. what drew you to that conclusion?

    I agree that pieds are not recognized.. however any color with pied.. is that color.. just with white.. if she was solid, she would be a blue fawn.. so doesn't that make her a blue fawn ... pied?

    Whats popular in Muscovy?

    She is no more hybred then the whites. She laid and hatched clutches for me. Why do you say she looks hybred? just curious I have never heard anyone say that about her, any of my ducks or the blue fawns befor

    Lilacs don't have chocolate heads, they have lilac heads. Here is a blue fawn from my flock what you can see is that the blue is diluted and the chocolate is diluted and turns fawn everywhere but the head, the feathers themselves have both blue and chocolate ( with one dilute gene) thus making...

    Been thinking of getting a Sebastopol, just need to know things.

    The low down on this is this.. they are not as calm as the buff and Emden, they are about as hard to breed as the dewlap and if you breed curly to curly you get wing problems. They are not easy, in short.. they take knowledge of not only geese but the breed. They are expensive and time...
