Duck Talk

That would be so cool!! We recently had a clutch it did NOT go well, daffy being a first time mum wasn’t the best… only 1 survived out of 15 eggs, that was Billie

That’s good that Billie hatched! I hatch eggs with my incubator a lot, but my Muscovies aren’t laying eggs right now, and I don’t have a drake with my hookbills so I have nothing to hatch.

Yeah! The older babies are so cute!! Do you ever hatch ducklings?

We have hatched once… it was traumatic, Daffy was not the best mum, and when some of the ducklings hatched she accidentally suffocated one of the ducklings while incubating the other the eggs

That’s funny the Muscovite’s aren’t laying? Is it a seasonal thing?

I don’t know. This is my first time having Muscovies, and all my other ducks used to lay all year, so maybe Muscovies just lay in spring and summer?

I feel you! SO many pictures of animals, and the rare photo of a human, most likely WITH an animals lol

I have so many pictures of my ducks even my computer has not enough of space to stock them...
I literally have several thousands of them, and NO talent to take actual good ones!
(Ah, ah, ah!)

The babies swimming in the pond

They are so cute...!!

Do post pictures on them once they are adult, please!!

Daffy and Taffy

They are beautiful ducks!!

...Is Taffy a Dark Campbell instead of a Khaki Campbell?
(Or is the light that gives me this impression?)

Here is a gift for your pictures :

They are my two Cayuga drakes :
• on our left : Max - born on JUNE 19th,
• on our right : Hutch - born on JULY 17th.

They still are so very young, and already so beautiful...
But they are my first Cayuga ducks ever, so I have no idea if they are considered good quality or not...

(Honestly, before having these boys, I thought the pictures of the so shiny Cayuga drakes we see on the Internet were actually photoshopped to exagerate their shine...!!)
