MALLARD THREAD...not rouens, Mallards!

[Kroelies]

That was my point , until proven wrong by Daniel lol

I mean a duck can't have ovaries and testicles right? What we need to know is what noise it makes

 

[Daniel-Sorensen]

If im understanding it correctly a female with intersex stops laying eggs (?) Not 100% sure but that is what says on some places on the internet.

that made me laugh. "What kind of noise..."

Intersex mallard.


EDIT: He is not eclipsing...
First of all the picture is taken some days ago, and right now there is winter in sweden and that means that the wild birds are not changing feathers. Ducks have their most perfect feathers in the winter and this is not his eclipse feathers.
Another thing is that wild colored mallard males have orange/yellow beaks.
Another example on a intersex mallard:

What a beautiful duck! I agree, definitely a intersex.

Well, IMO, that little intersex mallard duck burd is adorable.

Yeah! Does she quack? I have never seen an intersex duck. I bet she doesn't lay eggs, or never laid them in the first place.

the sound would be interesting. I've never heard of the term let alone the reference to a duck or bird.
