feemcg Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Yippee, Mac's got his curl feather (which I think is cute!). He's 16 weeks, although I knew he was maturing a couple of weeks ago when him and Mima started 'getting friendly' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 what pretty ducks and I love their names and little blue boat pond behind them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted February 19, 2008 Author Share Posted February 19, 2008 Thanks, he's the cutest boy - I carry him around cradling him like a baby and he snuggles into my neck. Mima's a bit more timid - I can catch her but she doesn't relax in my arms like he does. They love that pond - I break the ice and they jump straight in, then duck (!) right under to get water down their backs (that's where they 'do it' too ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairy&cake Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 why do the males have a curled feather? My Mr Big does! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted February 19, 2008 Author Share Posted February 19, 2008 I don't know why they have it - it's just a boy thing (although I think I read Muscovy boys don't). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gooner.girl Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Wow! They have grown Fee - he's very handsome (and mine do it on the pond to - they're especially randy when the waters changed and all clean and fresh! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xChicken04x Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 They are gorgeous . Do you remember which one's which? xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
feemcg Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 Yes, their colouring is completely different - when they hatched Mac was dark and Mima pale, and that's the way it stayed. He started off smaller but grew much bigger then got his dark head which confirmed he was a boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
