When they are broody and grumpy they don’t like jumping (they usually jump up and down over their pen) or swimming (stool was next to their pond) so the having to jump down is apart of their “punishment”

Quick update - Thank you all so much for the help! They are back to their loving selves hunting flies and looking for belly rubs The holding to the ground didn’t seem to work, if anything it made them angrier - taking it out on each other or my feet. Instead I chose to make a time out stool...

Yes I have hand raised them since they were a couple days old

I need some advice!!! I have two 10 month old female Muscovys who have recently become incredibly aggressive! One is picking on the other by chasing her and pulling out her feathers while the second attacks my feet! They have always been very docile, until I brought a chicken into the mix - I...

Goose has continued to get better and the vet said just to keep an eye on her for any changes. She thinks she must have eaten something and was having troubles digesting it. I have tried a charcoal flush and kept up with the electrolytes which has been working well and have also bought some...

Thank you so much, what is a flush?

Thank you so much, I really appreciate the help She is a Muscovy so she is very quiet naturally. Her feathers are mostly fine, still shiny and sleek (a bit ruffled at the end of the tail but I suspect that’s because I’ve quarrentined the pool) She hasn’t laid an egg for the past two days but...

Before I start - yes I have spoken to a vet and am waiting for my appointment, I am just after some other opinions This morning my ducks were fine, however in only a couple hours one retreated down and hid behind their pond; just standing not doing anything. She was not eating (though was still...

Lately my two 6 month year old Muscovy Ducks have been sleeping out in the open next to their pool rather than in their pen. I thought this was weird as it is winter (though an Australian winter so not too cold) and one has only recently started laying and I would assume she would find the pen...

Thanks everyone for the help - really keen to find out! Yes I made the same post a month ago and everyone said girl but lately the caruncles have been growing quickly and I feel like I've been hearing one make the huffing sound usually described as a male attribute, so am not sure! (Thought...

I am wondering what sex my 5 month old Muscovy Ducks are, they tend to contradict themselves a lot :)

Thank you The white one is Penelope (so was hoping for a girl) and the brown/white one is Goose

I am new to owning ducks and am wondering if anyone could know what sex my 4-month old muscovys are? Thank you xoxo
