Muscovy keepers share your pics!

[Going Quackers]

I am a proud new owner of two young muscovy girls. A friend who runs a sanctuary nearby brought them over today to join my flock. Not sure what color they are?? I am told they are about 12 weeks old.

Very nice!

I love them all.

It's definetly are to let them go But I know they are going to good homes.....we simply don't have the room for a million ducks

Thanks! They are very calm and sweet. Any idea what color they are? Their wings are almost silver colored and they have buff/tan chests.

Daisy just got her new stroller for when we go on long walks or visits! I got camo so now she looks like she's in a duck blind

That is awesome!!! I am going to hatch myself a Scovie next year for a house duck (shhh.... don't tell the hubby Cause the two I got are very happy being out with the chickens and want nothing to do with me... unless i have the hose... lol

I do love Daisy and all of your pictures/stories of her!!!!

When do Scovies start quacking? My two are 9 weeks old tomorrow and still chirping. I am guessing maybe 12-15 weeks for quacking? It's just funny seeing these big ducks (that are still growing) chirp when it looks like they should quack... lol

Scovies vey rarely quack, the girls make a thrilling sound and boys hiss. About the only time i have heard mine quack is if one of the boys has grabbed ahold of the tail.

Yeah not big on quacking unless you are my dusty, that one is a fog horn.. for no reason at all. By 9wks body structure will tell you, legs, feet.. overall sizing..

Thanks! I can deal with that lol. Right now they chirp up a storm when I get close to them... at least the Drake does... the Duck is a little less vocal but still chirps away when she is in their pool!
