Muscovy keepers share your pics!

[Buck Oakes]

hey guys I'm looking for waterfowl shows and also I'm thinking of showing my pure white female muscovy is that okay or is pure black more acceptable. And is it says poultry does that mean ducks to. or does it mean specifically chickens and etc.

I would have thought any colour of Muscovy would be acceptable. Also poultry include chickens, ducks, geese, etc so ducks are classed as poultry .

Now that you'd have to ask someone who shows Scovy' since before I read that I had never heard of it. I will say this some of the show Muscovy drakes are hideous they have so much carnuckling they look like monsters.

I couldn´t help wondering if the gypsy colouring is like the original, like your drake with that beautiful red and black 'beading'.
And I quite agree, a lot of those drakes are totally and thoroughly ugly. Hideous is a great word for them!
Stunning.
Ridiculous (to my mind anyway) . Looks like it´s diseased. Beautifully coloured pair, though.

That second drake cannot possibly see.. that is beyond over the top, to me it's like what they have done to many dog breeds ruined them by overdoing things. Nice colour though.
