I'll have to try and get a pic as soon as it's not freeze all the skin off my face cold outside, but I have a color question. I had a Muscovy clutch hatch that included lilac, blue, and silver. One silver is a closer to white the other closer to blue, and the one in question that looks white. At first I thought it was a white but it had black legs and darker beak and eyes. Then I thought it might be a cream. As it's become an adult it's gotten a very pale, creamish silver color on its head neck and tail while it's body is white, but on the wing bars it has that same darker color in a pattern like the wings of a Hamburg chicken. It's clearly a pattern and it's on both wings. Small spots in rows only on the wing. I've never seen a Muscovy like this, any idea on what pattern or color this girl is? I'll include a juvenile pic since it's all I have at the moment. And the only other waterfowl within miles of them are buff geese, and no exposure for years on the mother either.
