HELP! I assisted a duckling before internal pipping!

Many people raise Muscovy to eat. Pekins are also considered a meat duck do you have Pekins in your country?Muscovy do lay but they are a broody duck so they haven’t had the broodiness bred out of them like other domestic ducks that are big layers. Usually around 4 weeks and up you can start seeing drake from female. I do see some Muscovy in the picture white with black cap on the head and the others could be Saxony? Or mixed breeds nice looking ducks.

I asked him is it pekin,
He said:
"This is pekin before cooking it."
I didn't expect to hear that, but I think he doesn't know it is also called pekin while alive

But the pekin is the meat one he said. The picture I sent is the egg one. Now i will attach the meat one which he said is pekin.

I asked him, and he gave me this picture:

Apparently this is called the runner duck.

Yes many eat Pekin. They also make good pets. I have had ducks since 2004 and we have never eaten one they are my pets with eggs as a nice treat. Not saying it’s wrong it’s just not something I am interested in. Extra rooster we have had to process though.

Looks like you'll have to see the photos of dead ones before seeing the alive ones...

I opened the two remaining eggs. One had a dead incomplete embryo with complete head and thorax but no foot and only leg, and belly has some parts outside. All three turned out to be dead.

I'm so sorry.
