I have previously posted a photo of mother and baby. This little duck has survived babyhood thanks to a very attentive mother and is growing fast. The chances of a muscovy mother and pekin father having a duckling is fairly slim so this has been a real bonus. Such a cute little thing.
@eudora Thanks Diane, such an unlikely little family! @julzmaioro I think he (or she) is :-) @littleconnie@777margo Thanks so much @deborah63 Haha no they don't chase me. Unfortunately my dogs chase them!! The muscovy will eat out of my hand if the dogs aren't around. @hrs :-) @mssheeran Thanks :-=)
\ @haskar@hermann@paul10@bintal@ziggy77@jamibann@jodies Thanks so much :-) @jgpittenger They have certainly done a good job, so often baby ducklings will disappear one by one as something gets them, whether an eel or something else. The mum has certainly been very attentive and has done very well. The baby has grown a lot more now and is all white (apart from two black spots)
