Just had a message from my daughter who lives near Aberystwyth....a Facebook post has come up on a local group, Muscovy Ducks needing rehoming due to ill health.... Mike, 07960 708 526 Asks for phone contact as he is no good at social media. I've messaged Cathryn in case she knows anyone.. anyone else near there and can help?

biosecurity was my first thought until i realized it was probably the owner who was ill

if they arrive cleaned and chilled, jackets in a bag , how much a kilo? and how many need "rehoming"?

worse than sheep, a little better than geese

chooks are lovely, well almost all of them

ps im never going to be a duck or goose keeper, watch them doing wild things yep, eat them if they are the tasty types yep

beware the "i always wanted to keep ducks/geese"
most folk change their mind once they meet the things24/7

the eggs are nice if somebody else did the work(or you get a lucky forage of an egg in a very unsuitable place)

I used to have Muscovies...lovely sociable birds..the drake used to come up and "chat" when I was working in the garden, . Cathryn is onto it.... hopefully they'll get a good home with her or someone she knows
