Muscovy keepers share your pics!

What a dirty thing to do! Who would be selling a bird they don't even have?? I doubt many look exactly like that. Yeesh. He is gorgeous though!

I hope you reported that craigslist seller! What a dirty thing to do.

They are so pretty! I love the blue.

I like the blue too. I HAVE to add that color to my flock. They look like giant pigeons.

I didn't report it or flag it............. I don't think they are out to scam people..... just needed some photos......... but they could have asked for permission, and been honest about selling it or babies from that drake. I am wondering if the other photos are borrowed too?

I hate it when my ads get flagged & removed on craigslist! I posted 4 ads on the Madison, WI craigslist-
one is in pets for baby quaker parrots and patagonian conure babies
one in farm for alpacas & llamas
one in farm for peacocks & turkeys
one in farm for Pheasants, ducks geese.

usually the parrot ads get flagged in a matter of hours, but that one lasted for along time!
BUT the other 3 ads got flagged and removed within minutes!

I have no idea why- the ads were within the guide lines. I reposted 3 times and 3 times each was flagged!

Not sure what the people think they are doing or saving! Quess someone has to much time on there hands and not a life of their own they can control so they have to come after mine.

I misunderstood I guess. I read it that they were trying to sell you your duck from your picture. If they just borrowed your pics, while I still think it's wrong to do that without permission, I do see your point.

I had a friend who was trying to find good homes for some great dane pups and her ads kept getting flagged too. It's either animals rights fanatics, (and there are many who take it wayyyy past psycho) but most likely stupid people who have nothing better to do and think it's "funny."

I have for the first time gotten Muskovies..... Flipper, Darkwing & Flier I am wondering if I need to clip their wings? They are in a weasel secure duckie coop ... but we live on a lake... a BIG lake and I do not want them to have a call of the wild moment and never return. They are 9 weeks old and are just practicing flying right now. . The always come to me when I call them and give them treats . I need expert advice. I have had ---- pekins, rouens,Indian runners, calling,mallards... but never Muskovies.

I would suggest finding a vet to permantently pinioning their wings. This will guarentee they not go feral. Or at least won't fly away to be feral.
