I have some 'scovies. 3 hens and some drakes. It snowed here yesterday, bigtime -- (14 - 16"). We don't normally have much snow. The ducks go where they want to, and last night, (in the snow!) some of them went to the creek. Others tucked themselves up under a bantam house in a sheltered area.
Okay....This morning, when I went to let my chickens out, THERE WAS AN EGG under the bantam house! The bantams lay little eggs, and this was the size of a good sized chicken egg. NONE of my chickens were loose, and there was nothing but duck tracks around the bantam pen...
I thought Muscovy wouldn't lay until next spring? These were born the end of June so they are about 6 months old now. Whazzup?
