I'm a latecomer to this thread, but if its a parasitic twin, maybe the crest is just part of the other twin not an actual "crest"?Actually I bought the parents from another farm and hatched him myself from their eggs. But yes perhaps stranger than the foot is that NONE of the possible parents have anything resembling a crest. It's my understanding the crest must be present in at least one parent for it to be passed on. That the duck can't carry but not display the gene and pass it to offspring. So that's quite interesting. I even chased the parents down and got them in a head lock today to feel around on their heads lol. Nothing abnormal or resembling a crest at all
