I've never had the French White just the plain white Muscovy with blue eyes. I had 3 females all solid white they were my first muscovy besides the drake I adopted from the river. They hatched many ducklings but never a solid white.

Just learned something new. There is french white Muscovy. I thought there were just white. I think that must be what I just got too.

Granted no one would be believe that she is french white 😂. She has a couple small black drops on the top of her head you can't see. My husband looked at her and was like those spots that look like small bugs on her head. The breeder I got her from says she produces babies with caps, so it makes sense. I mostly got her because my drakes are going to need more girls and the breeder says she will take in any babies. She really liked this girl, but only wants to breed barred ducks.

I almost didn't have ducklings this year at all. I would walk by the TSC ducklings trying to get my fix of cuteness, or possibly torturing myself 😆. And watch all the duckling video and pictures trying to enjoy from a far. It is not the same as holding the little fluff ball.

Sure isn't the same, I just wanted to make sure I could feed the ones I have with shortages all over the country. I have a Muscovy who has been broody 3X this summer and finally gave up yesterday. She is such a great mommy too. It was sad not to let her sit some eggs. She'll be 11 next May we'll see if she goes broody. Her mama and aunt did this season. She might have to hatch more Runners my drake will be 12 next June not sure he is still fertile.

I couldn't bring myself to even go to TSC when they have chicks and ducklings. @Quatie you were very brave.

I can definitely understand that. We have been pretty fortunate with feed. Our local feed store buys from a local mill and has been well stocked. Prices have gone up, which has been the hard thing. Granted I add 9 ducks this year and haven't really been going through food any faster. I was a bit surprised by that.

I had to buy supplies at TSC. Knowing I don't want to deal with extra drakes stops me from getting any there. But golden 300s do always stop me for a second, since you know brown ones are girls.
