Does anyone in East Tennessee want a pair of blue ripples?
I also have lots of black Muscovies I need to get rid of as well. I currently have 37 Muscovies and the family is starting to complain.

I'm not up on my lingo, but more are always welcome here!!! I want to keep some hens I hatched since I bought my 4 and don't really know their age. But I want to introduce a new drake and pot the 2 I have now. Don't want to breed relatives!

If you are able to ship I would definitely snatch up those ripples! Message me if so and we can make arrangements!

The looneys are BY FAR my favorites this year!

Is shipping nearly full grown Muscovies even possible? I'm not certified to ship out of state.
That duckling is beautiful!

Darn! Yes, it's costly due to their size but you can ship them if permitted. Are you NPIP?

I have a muscovy question.
Whats a safe and effect ive way to introduce three new hens to my three older muscovy hens?
Ive tried everything and they persist to act nice after a month of see no touch then i let the new girls in a few days go by and i see blood on two older girls bills.
Two of my older hens ripped open my younger chocolate hen just like the drake did but instead of above her tail they were after her vent. She is now in the house with the other two younger ones. And younger ones I mean 3-4 month olds fully feathered and everything. My drake has since joined camp freezer due tp his very undesirable behavior and temper.

Im at an honest loss. Sell my older girls or risk loosing my three young one to being mauled to death?

No, I'm not NPIP. I wish you were closer. Blue ripples are so hard to come by.

Yikes! Do they have enough space? Are they bored?
