Hi all,
I've been watching you guys from afar for a while now and have really enjoyed your tips, so decided to join you. I have always had some form of poultry in my life. As a small tot we had a hen house full of, well hens, and a very handsome leghorn rooster. As a young child we had a pair of muscovys, 4 geese and raised turkeys. We had what seemed like hundreds! From there my family ended up with an emu farm, which is essentially just a giant bush chook. These days I live in remote Australia with my own family and we have 2 muscovy hens, a Isa brown cross hen named sunflower and an Isa brown cross rooster named Henny Penny (read was purchased as a pullet and then.. SUPRISE!) I have always had a deep love for muscovys. Not only as stunning lawn ornaments or their quirky personalities, but also their meat quality. One of my girls is currently raising a chook chick, and sitting on 3 eggs with me anxiously waiting the next hatch. Sorry if I've rambled but I am so excited to be here!

Welcome! So glad you've joined, I am new too and have found BYC to be a very friendly, welcoming and helpful community

I'm also from Australia, I live in Melbourne

Good morning, and welcome to BYC. I agree about muscovies - quirky and personable and also very tasty.
