Hey guys! How are ya? Whew! I didn't realize how much winter prep I had before I started working on it! Paddles and Puddles are growing like weeds!

Its about time to clip their wings, but they haven't quite figured out the whole flap flap = fly thing, so holding off on that for now.

My scovy girls are finishing up molt so probably by end of month I'll have to clip 6 girls wings. Your Scovy's are pretty I don't clip my drake he isn't going to go anywhere with all his girls here.

My youngsters are beginning to lay and are beating up my experianced girls. My experianced girls are 3-4 years and the youngsters aren't even a year yet. How long do muscovies live for? What about for breeding?

Thanks! Good thinking. I've only ever had a pekin drake and he's more likely to do math than fly lol

The avarage lifespan of the domestic Muscovy is 7-12 years, but there are some that have been recorded reaching 20 or older.
