There 6wks on Tuesady(jun 14) Pictures are not the best, everytime we bring out the camera they dash

This only two of them..sigh.. wish they'd be more co-operative

This is the picture of the one that is getting all the black & white feathering by the beak... it i can tell from the rest

The visibly largest ones are drakes and the smallest are hens.........

But they are good looking birds.

Thank you for showing the picture comparison... ugh. it's looking like all drakes.. that is no good, not at all.

I have absolutely no idea.... I've never raised Muscovys before.
If they turn out to be all drakes then you can sell them or make dinner out of them.

Either way they are very pretty!

As long as you don't have any feamale temtations you should be alright with a batchelor pen!

I have a pen of extra drakes because I didn't want to sell them. Worst decision ever! They are mateing each other and no matter what I do they look like my females in the breeding pens.
Feathers missing from them breeding each other.
