    Muscovy ducklings!

    Got 3 Muscovy ducklings recently, does anyone know anything about colouring names and figuring out the sex? I’ve seen people talk about them but not super sure myself. Very healthy and happy so far, surprised to see how quickly they warmed up to me and now they sprint to me and follow me around...

    Green duck poop?

    Hello, my duck has recently started pooping green this afternoon and I was wondering what it could be? She accidentally ate a small piece of a Taco Bell beef and cheese burrito when she was out of my sight so I originally thought that could be the cause until I found some of her poop she layed...

(My ducks put themselves to bed using a ramp, for some reason ramp was down and she couldn't make the jump up into the coop this time.) I think she was stuck outside for at least an hour, maybe...

    Muscovy ducks plucking each other's wings?

    I just noticed an issue with my young Muscovies plucking each other's wings. They'll reach out and grab another birds wing and yank the feathers out in the process. A few were bleeding. 😬. What should I do about this and why are they doing this. I've never had this issue before?

    Barred vs rippled in Muscovy ducks?

    I was given 20 free Muscovies a few weeks ago and didn't know that barred and rippled Muscovies existed until this year. I always had the black and white pied color. It turns out that 5 of the new ones are either barred or rippled, but I'm not exactly sure about the difference. I haven't...

    What type of breed is this duck?

    Hello, recently I’ve encountered some confusion and am unsure whether my duck is a moulard duck (a cross between a pekin and Muscovy) or a Muscovy?

    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...

    Peafowl Egg Hatched By Muscovy

    Long story short, I went to collect some Indian runner hatching eggs today to put under my broody muscovy hen. We were also given a peafowl egg for free (I said no but was outvoted 😂 ). The plan is to put them all in the nest at the same time but I'm not sure what the best thing to do is once...

    Have any of you ever had khaki Campbell x Muscovy crosses? How common is it? What did they look like?

    How common is it for Muscovies and Mallard-derived breeds to cross? Is it less likely to happen if there is a muscovy drake around? I did not separate my muscovy duck from the khaki Campbell drake, I don't think the drake would have bred her because for whatever reason the Muscovies sort of...

    Fussy duck i think

    My eldest muscovy (15 weeks) has stopped eating his grower pellets but will eat everything else like worms, grass, fruit (gave as treats) but wont even touch his pellets anymore even though he use to eat the pallets fine. Unsure if he has become fussy and doesn't like his pellets anymore (fancy...
