Muscovy duck?!?!

[CaliFarmsAR]

Hey y’all, I’m going to make this as short as possible. I have a Broody that was on 2 Muscovy eggs and some different breeds as well. Well, I did not mark the Muscovy eggs so...all the others hatched except one that I think is the Muscovy egg but only have a guess on what day it’s on which is 32. It’s still alive and moving..do y’all this it’s one? It’s starting make its little cheeping sounds and stuff so I think it may hatch soon?

They're not in the same family as mallard derivatives. They're close enough they can breed, but that's it.

No ranger is the best name in the world don't change it

I’m not sure if I 100% like it. If it’s a male I may sell him...so let’s hope for a female. This is the most reply’s I’ve ever gotten in a thread for the 2 years I’ve been here.
