Hatched my first duck! Cute Indian runner

Well, this is unexpected. Candy appears to be a Pekin runner cross. She's too heavy and not upright enough to be a runner. I just assumed she would be a runner because she came from a runner egg and I've never seen my Pekin drake mate successfully, even though I saw him try. I guess he succeeded, at least once.

Well, given time he managed to get it right. LOL

When I saw her coloring I was wondering what type of runner!! She is beautiful. Do you have any current pics?

Thank you so much! Indian runners and Pekin. There's a few geese, too. The runners were hatched by a friend so they aren't traditional runner colors/patterns.
