Sala Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 (edited) Can anyone advise me as to why our female Mallard has hatched 12 ducklings all identical except for one who is 'blonde'? Edited April 22, 2010 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted April 21, 2010 Share Posted April 21, 2010 Could be a different sex Might just be a different colour variation or something Not sure with mallards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donald Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 Perhaps a throwback we have wild mallards & there are a couple who dont look the real McCoy! Albino? One of them had an orange tinge to its feathering, so somewhere another duck must of infiltrated the pure breed lineage. Good luck sounds interesting version donald Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
