I thought I had a Pekin hen but turns out someone thinks she's a Muscovy. I do have a Pekin drake. Will they mate when she's ready? She's only 19 weeks old.
They run free now I just put them together when we first got him so he wouldn't run away.
 
I don't know a lot about Muscovies, but she certainly looks part! The problem there is if they do mate, all offspring will be sterile.
 
That looks like a Pekin/Muscovy cross to me. She's cute. But she'll probably lay small and unfertile eggs. I don't have much experience with crosses, sorry.
 
Her neck is very long and she looks pretty big. She looks like a mix but definetely part muscovy. They will mate. If she is mixed you will get no ducklings as she is sterile and will get smallish eggs.
