If I were to get ducks, what would you say I should get? I love muscovy

MUSCOVYYYYSSS
they are amazing
I love them
The only problem is that muscovy math is like chicken math x10

Duckness, duh

Oooh you should get ducks lol. I’ve never had Muscovy, and you can get whatever kind you like, but i would personally suggest you don’t get pekins. From my experience their weight can cause a lot of leg issues. I have two and absolutely love them, it can just be difficult. I love cayugas and Indian runners and khaki campbells…. Wait who am I kidding. I JUST LOVE DUCKS!

Oh that. I had that
If you ever try to raise roos just don't coddle them. It make the roos much less agro

Actually.......... I haven't found that to be the case at all. Or at least with gamefowl. My two stags were 2 months old when I got them, the next day they were jumping up and down on me, preening my hair, following me around. As adults, they fly to my hand for treats, and run alongside me

Then I definitely suggest you get ducks. Although some of my chickens have attempted to swim in the kiddie pool, they don’t float well and can’t get good maximum speed due to the absence of webbed toes.
