Since this is a Call duck color genetic thread. I have a question about one of my call duck's color. I am very new to the Call duck world and have fallen head over heals for these little ducks. Last August I had bought some call duck eggs and put them under my mallard duck to have her hatch them out for me. We got five little puffs of fluff out of 7 eggs put under my mallard. The eggs came from a large flock with many different colored calls. Four of the call I know the colors on but one of them has me stumped. I have 3 Black Bibbed, one might be a chocolate bibbed, he has more of a dark chocolate color tint than the pitch black of the other two. There is Snowy drake and then there is this little girl.

This picture was taken when she was around 2 1/2 months old with her "teenage" feathers. She changed very little with her adult feathers. Maybe just a hair lighter.
I'm not sure if she is a butterscotch or apricot or something else? Any body have any ideas?

She's definitely a mutt of sorts. Looks like she may have some snowy genes in play due to the chest markings as well as the lightly marked body feathers.
