No way! I got her a duck friend! They are two peas in a pod, Clementine and Kiwi are their names.She looks muscovy to me, I've never had muscovy though.
Is she all alone?
@DucksAreBest, your expert opinion?
Good! Was just wondering because she was with stuffed animals and most people think that's enough. Ducks need ducks, I'm glad she has a good friend!
It's too young to tell by the sound, that comes later. They all peep at this age.
When do they make adult sounds?
Muscovies are not as readily voiced as mallard derived breeds. Ducks don't quack and drakes don't 'rasp'. Muscovy hens tend to trill and drakes may hiss and neck bob when mature.
What other methods of identification are there?
You can look at feet size, body size, head size. Males have a wider stance when they stand. They have bigger feet and tend to flop over them. They rest a lot while growing - sit a lot more than the females. Their body is much longer than a female. Their being growth is slower. Usually you compare them to their siblings or others of the same age.
