Aflac Duck or Goose?

[sillysister74]

I know Aflac is supposed to be a duck but if you look at the commercials he is looking more like a goose. What do y'all think?

It's a pekin duck. Those do get pretty big. Plus sometimes they are using a "prop duck" and it isn't quite right.

It is a Pekin Duck!!

Yes, I am sure it is Pekin Duck but the CG especially the new one with Guy Feirti makes him a little goose like.

Nope. He's a Pekin duck. I've had several over the years (and yes...some of them have, oh how typical, been called Aflac. lol) I have one right now.

Definitely a Pekin Duck, and not a terrible rendition of one, really.

Doesn't he do a quack sort of thing when he says aflac?

According to Wiki it's a duck. They state Metzger Farms supplied them with the first group of ducklings to be used in there commercials.
