Difference between runners and not

[DuckDuckPromise]

What is the difference in a runner duck and umm, not a runner duck?! Thanks!!!

Runners stand upright. Like wine bottles. Other Mallard types are lower to the ground.

Aw, little human ducks! Thank you!

That's why they're called runners. They don't waddle, they run.
Big white one is a pekin and the rest are runners.

We used to have what we thought was a Khaki Campbell, but she stood upright like that! Is that possible to have a runner be a Khaki Campbell?

It could have been a runner or maybe a mix of the two! Do you have a picture?

I know I have one!! Let me find it! This will sound like a weird question, but is runner a breed, or just in conjunction with the breed? Example. Could there be a Cayuga runner? Or would it be one or the other? Does that
make any sense? It does in my head...

A runner is its own breed, just like a Cayuga is its own breed.

Oh, okay!! Can runners have the colors of other breeds?

Sure!
