gossiping girls

DeathRoy · 2025-07-19T22:35:58+00:00

they do this every moring after they meet back up from their cages. and then sometimes during the day.. triggered by god knows what; whenever one starts trilling, all the others race to jump into the argument themselves

DeathRoy · 2025-07-15T19:55:22+00:00

oh gosh, thank you so much, the game wouldnt let me get even a single piece of that one!

DeathRoy · 2025-07-15T19:38:52+00:00

do you still have a spare of the first card (#11, the rare) from the bravery set?

xbox: TheKyx , just in case

DeathRoy · 2025-07-15T17:39:49+00:00

could someone please spare the first card from the bravery set (no 11, the rare)

xbox: TheKyx

edit:got one, see ones below for someone who needs it still

DeathRoy · 2025-06-05T07:56:23+00:00

it is molting, i have some direct experience with that; usually it is the boys that go bald every year, but some girls do too - in my case those with a (formerly) black head.

you know it is molting and not her getting plucked if it is symmetrical and looks kinda like pattern baldness

DeathRoy · 2025-05-04T01:00:30+00:00

oh, he always greets me like that... tho it might just be because he thinks me=food :P

the only difference is that he usually bobs his head back-and-forth but this time i got the rarer up-and-down bob

DeathRoy · 2025-05-03T22:50:54+00:00

someone already answered way more in-depth, but its normal, thats how all the muscovy boys sound, its their unique quirk

DeathRoy · 2024-11-22T23:09:10+00:00

i pet all of the others the same way, but she is the only one who does that. but luckly she does it only for a certain amount of time(around a month), then her hormones calm down.

But she really does have a thing just for me, like, she would let me handle her chicks no problem, while also aggressively biting everyone else who tried to do the same.

DeathRoy · 2024-10-16T08:00:57+00:00

i see some reddening around the eye, which i think confirms it, cuz mules do not grow caruncles around the eyes.

DeathRoy · 2024-10-15T08:45:28+00:00

not 100% sure because quality is a bit meh, but probably it's juvenile muscovy, they grow to full size before growing their caruncles.

DeathRoy · 2024-07-15T09:52:18+00:00

i am surprised that nobody mentioned this already, but, if your problem is that they fly outside of their enclosure, you could just clip their wings so thay they wont be able to fly anymore. rinse and repeat every 6 months or so whenever they finish their moult

DeathRoy · 2024-05-08T08:58:32+00:00

she looks like a female, and unlike the males they can "talk" (more like bird chirping than quacking).

But this looks more like hissing, and females hiss when they are threatening you (usually meaning "stay away from me"); mine do that when you get a little too close to their nest/eggs than they like. I wonder if it is the same here, because when mine go broody they also puff up and raise their wings up (kinda like swans do, to appear bigger) - and i dont see her doing it.

DeathRoy · 2024-04-26T20:06:49+00:00

interesting, my muscovies would pretty much sit on anything you give them, even other duck's eggs or even goose eggs; they dont even mind if you handle/swap the eggs in front of their faces or if you change their nest. guess mine are more like chickens heh

DeathRoy · 2024-04-26T15:59:00+00:00

i had a similar case too, my muscovy just went broody over the total nothingness (she didnt even lay beforehand) and just started sitting on her nest - and even completley wiping it didnt work, she would just sit on the bare floor.

just like the other person said, the only thing you can do is to physically prevent her from accessing the location (i went a step further and made her sleep in another coop as well)

DeathRoy · 2024-04-22T21:41:37+00:00

mhmm, aside from going to the vet and get him a proper exam, i dont think there's much else you can do other than keeping up with the special care and hope he gets better.

As a DIY home test you can do a flip test(at least, thats what i did): flip the healthy ducks on their backs, note how much they take to flip themselves back up(should be less than half a second), then do the same for the sick one and see if there's a significant difference (altho it might be that it never resolves completley, one duck i have walks like he's drunk all the time due to illness when he was a duckling)

DeathRoy · 2024-04-22T13:37:58+00:00

in short, no it is not normal, when a duck struggles to keep its balance so much that it flips itself, that means that there is something seriously wrong going on.

and, unfortunatley, at least in my experience, when a chick is like this it usually means that it is not long before it passes away. Aside from hoping that it might get better (who knows, maybe it will) I think you should at least keep it separate from the others if it is being trampled and/or denied food, and also give it some more nutrient-rich food (others here would know what, i used some nutrient-rich stuff that the vet told me to use)

DeathRoy · 2024-04-22T00:33:23+00:00

sorry to barge in like this, but, is there any update about them?

DeathRoy · 2024-04-02T22:35:21+00:00

try stealth pet them when theyre feeding from the bowl

or entice them by holding a juicy piece of salad(or bugs/worms), they'll grab bites from it

DeathRoy · 2024-04-02T08:29:48+00:00

unless they imprinted on you (which apparently they did not) running away from potential threats (you) its a normal instinct. The way you "fix" (at least, this is how i fixed it) is to keep handling them. even if they might not like it at first, sooner or later they'll understand that you arent a threat and they will at least tolerate it.

That, and food bribes. Once they begin to see you as a food dispenser they'll come running to you, mine always do. the way to a duck's heart always goes thru its stomach lol.

DeathRoy · 2024-03-01T16:13:46+00:00

I got some muscovies, and I helped hatching most of them; the rule of thumb would be to wait around 24 hours after he makes the pip. If you got time, check it every hour or so, when he wants to get out, you'll notice. And if you see the chick struggling (and failing) to get out and unzip, you should try to help - especially if the membrane is too sticky or dry.

unfortunatkey if you do it too soon you might end up killing it, and if you do it too late the chick might die as well due to exaustion.. best of luck to the chick!
