🩵 About Muscovy Ducks

Muscovy ducks are a calm, hardy, and quiet breed originally from South America. Unlike most ducks, they are not descendants of the Mallard and are prized for their gentle nature, pest-control ability, and lean gourmet meat.

• 🕊️ Quiet: They hiss instead of quack.

• 🌿 Natural Foragers: Excellent at eating flies, mosquitoes, and weeds.

• 🍗 Dual Purpose: Great for both eggs (60–120 per year) and flavorful meat.

• 💧 Easy Keepers: Thrive with access to fresh water and open space.
