I live in Florida where Muscovy ducks are considered an invasive species a female decides to lay eggs in a large pot on my condo balcony she was always accompanied by a mature male and three juveniles. I call them mama, papa and baby ducks. I have been feeding them and papa duck runs up to me, let’s me pet him and eats from my hand. Today a neighbor with a pitbull he walks on a 20ft leash killed papa duck right in front of me, the babies who were about a foot away and the mama who was sitting on her nest on my balcony. I’m absolutely heartbroken and the worst part is that no one seems to care bc it’s “just a duck” I told management and the man should be reprimanded but I’m so so sad. Papa duck was my friend. I just wanted to tell someone I thought might understand. He was a really good duck. ❤
You are a hero for those moscovy ducks friend. I have had mine since he was a newborn. He’s two now. He is the best indoor emotional therapy duck/ best friend / duck son I have ever been blessed with. You should adopt one.
My muscovy girl has bright blue eyes and shes completely white except for one tiny black feather on the top of her head in her mohawk, its the cutest thing!
I have had these ducks for decades, they live wild in my area. Thankfully I have never been scratched by their claws. Since they walk around on rocks and pavement around here their claws are rounded off. Many people hate them but I love my feathered friends.
thanks for this, my wife and i are getting 5 muscovies today, like everything else on our farm; they will be black, our cat, and both dogs are black. the next chickens we buy will be black jersey giants. we are trying to become a self sustaining farm, as well as market farmers. we're excited to be raising muscovies.
Thank you. I'm new at this duck raising. So helpful. I have one male and 1 female but she's looks about 4 months and runs from the male which is large.
I watched this video because there was a wild Muskovy duck in my front yard that just keep coming and I know we had a special bond so I named him and I’m just seeing some videos of some good habitats we should get him
I always thought they looked more duck/chicken hybrids. Obviously the two birds can't breed but if they could it's what I picture the hybrids looking like.
I am picking up a breeding pair of blue Swedish and a lone Muscovy duck who lost her mate. I am going to try to figure out who is laying what eggs so I don’t try to hatch the muscovy’s ducklings. I subbed :)
When the female muscovy duck is hurt, shock, or surprise they dont only make a chirp sound but rather a Weuurrr!! Weur!!! Sometimes they almost sound like they are quacking but definitely a weur! I love how they make that sound especially the males when they feel threatend or territorial warning makes a hhuuuuuuuuhhhhh h h h h h h h h h h h sound like a breathing dragon😅😆😂. Let mo know guys if you've heard this? Heheheheh
Seriously?! She gave excellent information and instead of thanking her for the great info and for her taking her time to give us free information, you want to talk about the sniffling?! 🤦♀️

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope another family decides to make your home theirs.
Sorry about papa duck. When I lost my hen (lady cockerel) it was really sad. I understand your pain, sorry for your loss

Why are they considered an invasive species? They don't do anything bad to the environment.
That's is so shitty. Hope you're alright amigo.

I love Muscovys they're coloring is gorgeous and I love the way they communicate with each other!
Excellent video, well made and well spoken. We plan to get a place out in the sticks and plan to get some Muscovy's...thanks for sharing!

I love my 4 scovies! They are soo much fun!
Thank you I just got two and it’s great information for me. Appreciate you taking the time to make this video
Of course! I love Muscovys. They're such an interesting breed to look at
My 1st pets, living in Florida. My little joke is that we have Muscovy goose-ducks. Now that ive had geese, I see the semblance!
Thank you. I'm new at this duck raising. So helpful. I have one male and 1 female but she's looks about 4 months and runs from the male which is large.
My muscovies have breed with my rouens and their off-spring was quite a mix
What a beautiful duck
I love the color of your muscovy duck. Enjoy watching ur video.
Thank you! Bowser is definitely very unique looking!

I have moscovy ducks in my farm and it takes them 40 days to hatch
Nice

Would you make a video on Cayugas?
Are they ideal for fish ponds ?
Nice colors
Thank you!
Ship them to Cuba!!! They’re starving over there!!!😂🤣
I have some but I don’t know the difference between the female and the male ones
Haii Saya dari indonesia saya sangat suka saya juga mempunyai banyak muscovy duck
Can they change color? I had a white and green moscovy and then he went away for a bit and now I have a black moscovy
I don't think they change color that drastically, you might have an imposter!
I have a white hen that has striking light blue eyes.
I don't get to hold mine I rescued. So neat to see bowzer chilling p.s. pekins get HUGE
My hen Muscovy is lethargic and won’t eat. Why? Does any one know what could be?
What should I do?

A muscovy female lay how many eggs in one year?
Am in love with the girl .
I am from zanzibar. I hav about 30 ducks and i love keeping these birds.keep on giving us a lesson.big up.
Why muscovy duck incubation period is too long than other duck 🦆?
Because they have thicker egg shell
@@aarondedace1106 Thanks a lot 🥰
How come u duck no afraid u, how u did let the duck without running from u
Be kind and they don't fear you.
Could do without the snorting and sniffing, Might use an antihistamine before filming next time.

muscovy ducks aren't at all related to turkeys
