Muscovy Duck originated from the wild Muscovy found throughout Central and South America, making it a completely different species than all other domestic breeds. It is the heaviest breed of recognized duck breed, with males frequently being twice the size of females. Despite their large size, they are very capable fliers, particularly the lighter weight females. They are also prone to roosting and perching on objects similar to chickens. Perhaps their most unique feature is their caruncled face, similar to that of a turkey. Despite their exotic appearance, they make excellent utility birds.
