will my ducks fly
« on: December 06, 2009, 23:20 »
My muscovy girls have had their wings clipped since their moult into grown up feathers, as I know that muscovies can fly very well! Vic and Bob the cayugas have very little wings in relation to their body size so not worried there, and the runners I doubt can fly either but.......................I am a bit worried about my 2 khaki cambells? they are still getting the last of their adult feathers but would they fly off??? I have refrained from catching them as they are so timid, (as opposed to the muscovies who creep up behind me and squat  ??? little hussies  :lol: )
should i clip them or will they think of my garden as home?
thinks her guardian angel`s gone on strike !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Campbells have never shown the slightest sign of flying off and I have never clipped them. :happy:
Be like a duck. Calm on the surface but always paddling like the dickens underneath.

I am looking forward to the muscovies flying next year when their feathers grow out, although I did wonder the other day how they got from one side of their to the other so quickly! :lol: :lol:
