[Cencor]

Hi everyone we bought what we where tild where two female muscovies 11weeks ago when they where 9weeks old. We bought a drake but he whos older he showed no interest. When my malaard male goes near them they puff up the dont quak or hiss its kinda inbetween and one of them her feathers on her head stand up when shes upset. Therw pretty big but very nervous even though we spend time with them every day they do sit with the male and he has never attacked them any ideAs which they are!! Apologies my phone wont let me load photos

At 11 weeks old the drakes not interested because they are breeding age yet. What age is your drake? and Muscovy ducks body shape is kinda like an american foot ball and their legs under them are set closer together almost looks like they will step on their own feet,Drakes are long from head to tail thick legs set wide apart under their bodies.
