Hi, I’m Sweeny Todd

Sweeny Todd is a Muscovy duck with a big personality and an even bigger presence. Despite his dramatic name, he's far more lover than villain. He's a confident, curious boy who enjoys pottering around, supervising the yard, and keeping an eye on whatever his humans are up to. Muscovies are known for their calm nature, and Sweeny Todd fits the bill-he's steady, observant, and happy to spend his days exploring or lounging in a sunny spot.

He's social in his own duck‑ish way, enjoying the company of people and other calm waterfowl. He's not demanding, but he does appreciate gentle interaction and a predictable routine. A home with safe outdoor space, access to water for dabbling, and shelter from the weather would suit him perfectly.

Sweeny Todd is an excellent option for someone who loves the quirky charm of Muscovies and wants a companion who brings character and quiet humour to the yard. With the right home, he'll settle in beautifully and become a delightful part of the daily rhythm.
