Do you agree that the Muscovy duck is the ugliest duck breed?

Well, the muscovy is known as the ugliest duck breed. Do you think they're ugly??



I don't agree, I have 6 of them

Just a random question

Edit;; Google ugliest duck breed, muscovy comes up

I think my two boys are handsome birds. When the have their crests and mohawks erect they are really majestic. My son's female muscovy had the sweetest face (and temperament)

I don't like the caruncles and do feel it detracts from their overall appeal. But that's just me. I don't dislike them or anything.

I feel the same with mine, but only 2 out of 6 have the red stuff, since the others are only some months.
They're funny looking, and the young ones have the tiniest mohawk ever, it's hilarious

True, and they're also kind of gross to touch..

Lol, are they?

 

[cassandrapettersson]

Lol, are they?

They're warm, and squishy...

I’ve seen some beautiful muscovies but I’ve also seen some that creep me out I’m also terrified of their hissing

My younger cousins cry whenever they see the muscovies, not a huge fan

I love My Muscovy, I think my drake is handsome and my girls are beautiful!
I love to feel their carnucles

I have a couple of weird looking chickens. My ducks are all gorgeous, but a couple of them chickens...

But once you get to know them and see their personalities and their quirks, it's impossible not to love them!

And I think the red caruncle on Muscovy look striking in contrast to their feathers - like red, red combs on black or white chickens.
