Muscovy ducks are the most prolific animal I have ever raised!!!

We had ANOTHER duck set off babies. That makes about 60 babies in about 2 months out of 4 hens. And actually, this was one of the hens second batch for the year. WOW! Don't get me wrong, they are adorable! We have a lilac drake over wild-type, blue pied, silver ducks. The ones that have feathered out so far have been LOVELY. I am most excited about getting some more blues ... hopefully a blue drake because I want to be able to get some more blue ducks later on. The people that I have sold or given them to are loving them. They are so docile and follow us around like dogs. But seriously ... I don't know of a more prolific bird and only one or two mammals could compete. (Like maybe rabbits! LOL)

I agree if you leave those scobies to there own antics you will be over run with them I have to thin my flock often because of how fast and well they reproduce. Good luck!
