I have 2 ducklings that have hatched from my own flock… they are both 2weeks old tho they are 2 days apart…
I have muscovy and Cayuga (males and females in both) and they all run together.. I know my male Cayuga (jack) has taken a particular liking to my scovie girls…
my question is this why is there such a HUGE size difference between the ducklings and is there anyway at this age to tell if they are pure breeds or more likely cross breeds…
And is the size difference something to do with the fact that the little yellow one (quackers) had ligament issues when he/she hatched…
Both ducklings also hatched 5-3 days earlier than muscovy (35 days) hatching time but later than Cayuga hatching time (28 days)
