How to stop Muscovy ducks from bullying each other?
I specifically got all female Muscovy ducks to avoid bullies but I soon learned that doesn't keep them from picking on each other. When it is egg-laying season they chase each other daily, sometimes pulling feathers, drawing blood, and almost drowning each other, and I have had to separate them...- StinkyAcres

Minor wet feather - should I be concerned?
All of my Muscovies have some degree of wet feather. They bathe and preen multiple times a day, but it hasn't resolved. It started this spring; they had no issues in the winter. I've read it's not uncommon in Muscovies, but should I be concerned and is there anything I should do to help them?- StinkyAcres

Muscovy claw question
Several of my muscovies have a claw which appears to be broken off short. In each case, this claw is on the outer side of the foot - the "little toe" or "pinkie toe" side if they had human feet. Is this common in muscovies? Does anyone know how it happens? -
Why won't my Muscovy ducks roost
I just recently bought some Muscovy Ducks. I heard that Muscovy Ducks like to roost so I built them a place to roost but none of them have touched it. They even have a place to roost in their coop but they sleep on the ground. Is this normal? Do some ducks prefer not to roost or are they just...- FathertoFeathers
