About Muscovy Ducks
The Muscovy Duck is a hardy, quiet, and fast-growing duck breed known for its unique appearance and calm nature. Unlike most ducks, Muscovies do not quack—they make soft hissing sounds, which makes them perfect for homes that prefer quiet birds.
They have a distinct red facial caruncle, strong claws, and come in many colors such as black, white, chocolate, and pied. Muscovies are excellent for both meat production and ornamental keeping, and they are also great mothers, raising ducklings with high success rates.
