Hey guys just like to find out . Are Muscovys and Peking ducks compatible will a male Peking mate with a female Muscovy and will the female Peking coexist with another female Muscovy . I have three Pekings one drake and two females my female seems to be Campbell crossed with Peking. So I want to know if I can include a muscoviy female to help hatch my eggs. Cause I've heard they are the best moms

I would think so. I don't have any Pekings, but the khaki Campbell's, buff orp, and runner ducks get along great with my Muscovy's. My Drake occasionally mates with them though.

Neighbor's duck hatched 2 ducklings for her first time. Dad is a mallard something or other. No one could figure out what he was except pretty and a lunatic. He found a new home....

Dad



Why are you following us lady!? Lol

Sweet mama

Being born and entertaining the neighbor is hard work!




The momma makes little peeps like the ducklings. Possibly the cutest thing I ever seen!!!! Don't tell me 2 ducks I said that....

They are adorable Suzy

Simple but effective nests. Over a hundred eggs were collected here in about a month from 10 hens and one drake.

Hey guys just like to find out . Are Muscovys and Peking ducks compatible will a male peking mate with a female Muscovy and will the female peking coexist with another female Muscovy . I have three Pekings one drake and two females my female seems to be Campbell crossed with peking. So I want to know if I can include a muscoviy female to help hatch my eggs. Cause I've heard they are the best moms

The best deal is to keep Peking drake with Muscovy hens. They produce a giant mule which cannot reproduce but they do get large in record time. The meat is not as sweet as the pure Muscovy but if u are breading to sell then u may have a good business going there...
