First, a little back story. My husband found a single duckling wandering around a parking lot. She was fairly naked on her back and wings. He brought her home, fell in love, and named her Daisy. We did a lot of research and talked to a vet and concluded that she was a Pekin. When she was about a month old we adopted another Pekin duckling to keep her company.
Now we notice a lot of differences between the two. I've never had ducks before. Daisy has a really large PINK bill, really long tail feathers, and a black spot on her head! Is she a mix breed?
Here is what she looked like as a duckling?
Here is a picture where you can see her black spot.
Here you can see her pink bill
So is my Pekin really something else?
