The standard actually says caruncling shouldn’t restrict eyes or vision. Judges don’t ever choose the over caruncled ducks that can’t see or breathe but exhibitors do bring themI have never understood why judges want Muscovy to have so many caruncles on their faces you can't even see their eyes now to me that is disgusting. Plus poor things can't even see.
This is what a proper show muscovy ought to look like. He did very well.
I’m pretty neutral to caruncling on ducks as long as it is nice and even. Can’t say I love it but I don’t hate it.
I voted that I love it though because of turkeys. Turkeys caruncles change colors. The coolness factor far outweighs the “ugliness.”
