My daughter has a Magpie male and a Cayuga female. I thought I read somewhere that the cayuga was a foundation breed for the Magpie. Does that mean that they can successfully breed? My daughter is hoping for a batch of ducklings this spring. If not, I'll have to try to find a female for Louie.
 
All almost all domestic ducks except muskovies are descended from wild mallards. Just like all dog breeds are descended from wolves. That means they can successfully mate. You will probably get mostly black ducks with some white on them.
