Well I have domestic ducks, not muscovies. That is probably a major difference. Mine don't fly at all. I live too close to a lake to own muscovies and chance them interbreeding with other water fowl.
I know the muscovies get huge. The pekins are my biggest ducks which is plenty of meat.
I've been trying to sweep the floors. Finally really wore out and got tired of that project. More later. I need to get out and take care of birds now. The sun is shining beautifully even though it isn't all the warm it feels so much better than yesterday. My allergies are going nuts and I'm sure it is because of all that wind yesterday.
I did manage to get leg bands on my two youngest Mandarin ducks drakes yesterday. They were getting all their adult colors and very hard to tell from their parents. I want to sell them next spring if not before. Beautiful birds but I have too many boys.
