So... Long story short... I'm fostering 5 muscovy ducklings 😂 I don't know how I always end up being a nanny of someone haha but I'm happy because they're the cutest thing ever 🥰 I don't have experience with muscovys, so any advice will be appreciated. There's one who seems a bit weaker but maybe it hatched the last one. We don't really know. I call that one Mini Pip
Made with plain gelatin, peas and mealworms
I have hatched 3 ducklings from white eggs, the farmer said the ducks are Magpie ducks. One duck is completely yellow (which I assume will become completely white). The others have black patches. Can Magpie ducks be all white or have I a different breed sprinkled into the mix here?🤩
Also, anyone have suggestions on how to tell what sex they might be? They’re 10 days old now.

In 2011, a farm cat named Della gained fame after “adopting” three newly hatched orphaned ducklings. The gentle cat brought the wee waddlers into her nest, letting them cuddle beside her and her kittens. She even attempted to nurse them.
Despite the unconventional family, the birds were successfully raised alongside the kittens and remained strongly attached to their feline mother as they grew.
