Muskovy duck eggs

[JDH30]

I reciently got a pair of muskovy ducks and I'm not sure the hen is pure muskovy or a cross. If she is a cross will her eggs grow but not hatch or not grow at all? I have one in a incubator and I'm going to see what it looks like in a week but I'm not sure if that will tell me anything thanks.

If she's a mule, they were be sterile. What makes you think she is? any pictures?

 

[JDH30]

The lady I got them from said she thought she was a cross.

I'm having trouble adding a picture I will try when I get home tonight.

How old is she supposed to be? she looks 'scovie i even see the start of the facial fleshing, she looks young though...

I have some chocolates.. this is my broody right BUT she's 9mths+ old so more developed....





some of them including the broody one when they were younger(this yr tho), you'll note the facial flesh is not as developed.

She could be young the lady I got them from saved them from a animal hoarder type who had twenty plus ducks and various other animals so I don't have much info. She's a nice duck regardless I have a egg in the incubator now to see if it developes.

She's a beauty!! I'd say she's pure Muscovy Personally I'd wait until I had more eggs to incubate before starting the bator up
