That pic is so dark I cannot tell whos crested. Let me get this stright....you have a cayuga hen with a pekin drake (am I reading this auction right?)

He is a crested not a pekin, he is from dual crested parents, he is carries the gene but doesn't exhibit the crest, except when he's ticked and his head fluffs up. The hen is a pure cayuga hen. When a crested duck is crossed with a non crested you get color variation and a chance at crested and non crested ducklings.

For example... mine are NOT hatchery ducks, they were eggs from a private breeder, but here's some info. http://www.purelypoultry.com/crested-ducks-p-617.html

Thank you for that information. That explains it very well...

I guess I did not realize that crested was a breed. They look like Pekin ducks to me. Thanks for explaining.
