for newbie duck owners like me (care sheet for ducks)

Yeah, I've have some neighbors who'd be pretty upset. There is a pond at one house down the hill from us. I suspect any duck that ended up down there would become the guy's dinner!

I would love to do muscovies as well. They are quiet right? are they as quiet as cayugas or quieter?

my cayuga is the loudest duck i've ever had! But i never hear a peep out of the scovie or pekin.

 

[hypnofrogstevie]

would you be able to do 3+ scovies and 3+ pekins? Maybe I should should mix my set up andinstead of just cayugas

 

[Henrietta23]

the muscovies are supposed to hiss or "sing" more than quack from what I've read. They are considered the quietest. But they do fly more than some of the others.

They will be in a closed run and I know the person above us has a pond. The dogs go there when they run away and splash around. I dont want to make more people mad.

well most will probably be mixed breeds, unless you wanted just purebred? I think the mixed ones would look cool, depending on what mix you go. but it's up to you.

Yes, sometimes he does hiss. We have a 4months old puppy and she tried to "play" with him and he stick his butt up in the air head down and hisses, it is the funnies thing ever!
