Muscovy keepers share your pics!

Thank you everyone and you know I will :). She is not happy about the move, but im hoping she will calm down and mellow out.

I'm scared for Kristof to go broody! All these months and months of broody ducks! Ahhh! We only have three ducks, no drakes and Kristof is are only Muscovy. Ana and Elsa are anconas, so not as worried about them being broody. I will just have to get fake eggs and wait it out I guess.

All you can do is try. Then if you get fighting once they get mature or the start abusing the ducks you'll have to decide then what you want to do. I have 4 drakes and 8 ducks and so far things aren't too bad. Boys get into it some but may main concern is that the ducks are okay. and so far they are.

So, my muscovy is broody and apparently the RLBW wants to share in the process. The nest box is not big enough for them both, but when one gets up to eat/drink the other takes over and sometimes they just both sit. I put 5 fertile eggs in there so far on day 14 and seeing veins and movement. I have one question though, I have another muscovy that decided to hide under the shed where the rabbits dug and she's also sitting on infertile eggs, at what point will she realize that nothings growing and quit? Will I need to dig them out somehow so they don't spoil? I tried, but can't reach far enough in there to get them...
