How To Clip Muscovy Ducks Flight Feathers | 🦆🦆 Drakes Names Reveal!

#ClippingFlightFeathers #ClippingDuckFeathers #ClippingWings

When we first got Muscovy's a few weeks ago we knw that they could fly and that SOME of our ducks had already had their flight feathers clipped. We had a couple of escapees and BOY were they hard to CATCH! SO to keep our ducks safely in their runs, we have to clip flight feathers on all of our ducks. Clipping feathers is painless to the ducks and hinders them from flying up and over the fences.

What do you all think of our escapee Muscovy Drakes? I LOVE these ducks... a lot more than I thought I would! Do you like their names?

Your background music is perfect for this video

Thanks for the video ! First time letting my muscovy ducks out of the barn since I got them over a week ago : they flew out of the pen and one ended up on my neighbors' roof 😳😳😳😳😳

Very interesting, thank you. Love the ducks.

You guys have so much fun on your farm

Looks like you guys are feeling better! Hope you are resting up though. Not often you get the chance to just rest. Those ducks just wanted to sun themselves is all. Every living thing needs sunshine and I imagine it gets as dreary there as it does in Ohio in the winter!

Really good video guys, just what I needed. I have khaki Campbell ducks and they’re slender bodies are more for laying than eating. I wanted them to be all natural but honestly I’m a bit scared to free range them in our orchard this year. They have a 30’ run and I see them fly all the time from one end to another, if they had open area I feel like they could just fly away. I’ll probably be wing clipping too and at least now I know how to do it, thanks for that. Chad.

Muscovy ducks creep me out for some reason 😂😂 I have a mallard female I hatched and I have to clip her wings. Also you look great, but that virus actually takes a long time to feel 100% from what I’ve been told. But chasing livestock makes you realize how out of shape I am 🤣😂🤣

My males have always been too heavy to fly, but man those females get WAY high up, I'd find them sitting on the roof of the barn some days. lol Their names are perfect!! You are so happy with them and it is so fun to watch you interacting with them! lol
Hope you guys are all feeling better. You sound a lot more spunky!

From what I understand you need to reclip them every year. Considering muskovy ducks can cross breed with the mallard yet their offspring are sterile like donkeys and horses making a mule, I would say they're a lot closer to a duck than a goose. For snacks I give my ducks some bonito flakes, they're dried cod fish flakes and my ducks can't get enough of them, you should be able to find them in almost asian market.

Would clipping every other flight feather effective or should I have cut all of them

OMG! Get to the point! Why does everyone take so LONG to get to the point!!!!
