Muscovies will try to go home.
I found this out the hard way years ago
when I bought six young adult Muscovies.
They all flew off never to be found again
except one that was hit by a car.
i thought domestic ducks cant fly far..or wouldnt fly....i havent clipped my reouns(sp?) wings or my runner mix's wings.....should i?....all mine have ever done is fly for a few feet in my yard....they stay right in my yard...do i need to clip...just to be safe?...thanks, Wendy
