Thank you, DH is the master builder, I just ask for stuff and he builds me works of art.
I'm excited to have been able to add Muscovies to the urban farm and hope they work out. I was really surprised at how chill they are compared to the busy chickens. Today I'm putting up fencing because they've figured out how to jump into the raised beds which are supposed to be off limits.

Muscovy's are awesome birds. Always trying to stay ahead of them is time consuming. But way worth it.

Your dh did a beautiful work of art with that coop.

How soon do you think I can/should clip their wings? I don't want to find out I've waited too long because they're in the neighbour's yard.

Once their flight feathers have grown in completely clip then.

I just got 2 Muscovy ducklings today they're so cute/pretty! The lady I bought them from said they're 2 months and both female but I wanted to ask here too just incase. I'm hoping to breed them with my Cayuga drake for tasty meat birds my Cayugas are a couple months older tho so I'llhave to wait for that

These two were born in May, according to the random person my husband got them from. He went for the two smallest, hoping they would be females. I’m a little nervous about asking on here... My unscientific guess is that the white/yellow one is a drake and the black/white one is a duck. However, they are very similar in size and shape, so maybe they are both female? I really don’t think that the black/white one is male...
