Muscovy/magpie

We have some ducklings definitely took as long as the Muscovy hatching time not sure of how many but definitely 6 or 7 so far

Congrats! Is it a muscovy mama? Or magpie? The first pic shows a muscovy looking at you. But, maybe she's just nosey? Or you will have a mixture of magpie and muscovy ducklings if they share nests?

We were told when we got them this one was a magpie do you think it’s a Muscovy? It looks a lot different to the male and female Muscovys we have as well

Can you post a full pic of her?

Adorable! I would say she's full muscovy with the magpie coloring. A mix would not be as fertile and it has to be a certain parentage for her to even lay eggs. She's lovely.

Ok thanks for the info we were told she was a magpie and with her being black I presumed she was but I don’t know much about breeds eggs were definitely nearer the 40 days so makes sense now
