    Return Duckling to Mother - Late Hatcher

    Hello all, This may be a bit of a silly question, but I keep second guessing myself on this.. Yesterday we discovered Burger my 1 year old muscovy duck had successfully hatched 8 babies. Seven of the eight seemed to be at least a day or two old, and 1 of them had looked to have just hatched...

    We have a Muscovy hen, Mo, and she ended up with only 2 eggs left due to a snake. One has hatched and the other has not. How long should we wait, before taking that egg away? The first one hatched about 2 days ago. All the Muscovies stayed in the run the last 2 nights, like family in the...

    Muscovy Setup and Rat Snake Safety

    Early this may I had 5 tiny muscovies ducklings. After I lost two, I put a large dog crate in my room that I keep the ducks in from 8:30pm-10:00am. During the day the ducklings are released into the duck run to frolic until the sun starts setting, rinse and repeat. I've kept this up for a couple...

    Makeshift Duckling Food?

    I have 5 four week old muscovy ducklings I'm currently raising. I fed them the last of their duckling crumbles today and didn't get a chance to run by the store to get more like I intended (a crisis came up in the chicken coop). So... I put together a quick batch of something to hold them over...

    Muscovy hen behavior!! Beats all I've ever seen!!

    Crazy Broody Muscovy hens!! I have experienced great frustration with trying to keep my Muscovy ducks safe. We have dealt with snapping turtles, blocked dangerous or inaccessible areas, or so we thought, that they could lay to no avail. I CANNOT get over how very broody they are. Our numbers...

    Muscovy Ducklings

    I am in central Pennsylvania and have 3 ducklings looking for a home. We believe they are French muscovy, not sure on gender, age somewhere between 5 and 8 weeks.

    Will my ducks go bush if I let them free range.

    I've owned three muscovy ducks, a mother and two ducklings (about 7-8 weeks old) for about a month and we've had them in a enclosed pen, but we won't to have them free ranging. However, there are two problems. The first problem is that we have a large area of dense bush around our home and we...

    Crooked duckling?

    Hi lovely people! I hatched out a Muscovy duckling last week, and he appears to be a little lopsided? He’s perfectly happy and healthy and eats like tomorrow will never come, so it doesn’t seem to affect him that way. He is however a bit slower than his sister and because he tilts to the left...

    I never see Muscovy Duck off her nest. Should I move her to candle the eggs?

    I check on my ducks a lot. They have a good portion of the yard fenced off and I can peek over. I never see my brooding Muscovy off her nest. I know you’re suppose to remove bad eggs but I haven’t even candled them once since I have never seen her not sitting on them. Should I try to remove her...
