    Description

    8 Muscovy hatching eggs. No birds have any relation to each other.  All ducklings will be black or blue, and some could be rippled. They also could carry the necessary genes to make Lavender, Sepia, Platinum, Chocolate, Black, and Blue.
    Drake:
    Solid Black / Split to ripple - Descendent of Danny Padgett's champion muscovy line.  He is atipico (not wild type).  I've included his picture as a duckling.
    Three hens currently laying:
    Rippled Lavender
    Barred Blue - carries Sepia & ripple genes
    Chocolate
    You will receive approximately the same number of eggs from each hen.
    Incubating and hatching Muscovy eggs requires a different procedure than chicken eggs as well as other breeds of duck eggs.  Mother hen's are usually the best incubator for Muscovy eggs, but if you are planning on incubating, you can find some very useful information online.  Ebay does not allow me to provide direct links to this information, but if you perform a google search on "Incubating and Hatching Muscovy Eggs", you'll find a "backyard chickens" site that has some great tips in their forum.
    Due to the tricky nature of hatching Muscovy eggs, I offer no guarantee that all of your eggs will hatch.  I will do my part to ensure that you receive fertile eggs, but problems may arise from the incubation process and/or shipping that are out of my control.
    Please allow up to 3 days after close of auction for shipment.
