RE: Raising Muscovy Ducks: Our Experiences; Pros and Cons...
We have a big group of Muscovy is probably about 30 some. Currently I was trying to help the babies stay alive, but some raccoon or possum climbed down their deck and slaughtered all but three. It's our first full year raising them, trying to weigh the pros and cons. Lots of eggs presently. When do you fiND they stop laying?
Ours laid mostly in the spring and fall. Most of them would use a nestbox, but there were always a few rogues... They seemed to lay until they had a nest full and then set. The summer and winter times would be eggless for us...
Sorry about your predator problem... That is so frustrating and disappointing. I hope you find the culprit!
