muscovy record?

[colinbrown63]

Hi I am Colin and I am wondering wether My Muscovy has created a record
in the fact that she laid 22 eggs in one nest and hatched every single one.I am now the proud owner of 1 male 1 female
and 22 little ducklings.Can they be sexed at a young age.

That's a heck of a batch of ducklings. Other than vent sexing (done by trained individuals) it is nearly impossible to sex ducklings.

Hi Colin and welcome to BYC - glad that you have joined us. Maybe the folks over in the Duck forum can verify your possible record - https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/42/ducks. Either way, it sounds like pretty impressive!

All the best

Hello there and welcome to BYC!

Congrats on all those eggs! You will definitely want to post in our Ducks section for more info about any records being broken. I don't keep ducks, but this surely sounds like a lot of eggs to me! LOL

Enjoy all your babies and welcome to our flock!

Nice to meet you Colin. Your duck sounds like a record breaker to me. Wow, I can just picture 22 little ducklings following her in a line.
