I sold my tiny coop today to a guy who knew a lot about ducks! I finally got some answers about Waddles and Puddles! They are 8-10 weeks old and both, most likely are female!

If it isn't hindering his walking at all then probably just the way he walks has it been this way since he was tiny. .  If you can get a video that would help. They can actually get off of chick starter and go to something like an All flock.

Some of my Muscovy females are pigeon toed.

I will get video tomorrow. Yes it's about like pigeon toed .He seems to walk OK...A little clumsy, he is a Pekin afterall and his flock mates are runners. I am waiting to put them on different feed due to the fact that they're run is in with my pullets that are almost 10weeks. I thought the ducks were supposed to have starter til 10 weeks..Is that wrong?

Starter should stop being served at around 3-4 weeks but if you have lots left over mix it with the next feed which can be a flock raiser because then you never have to change feed again. When I have babies all my flock gets starter till it's all used up it cannot hurt them at all.

I think just pigeon toed. Can't figure out how to upload video here. But, if you can tell from feet in pic the one foot is turned in. S/he pretty much walks with it like that too
