I can't find the thread where I asked about muscovy colors and genetics, so I started a new one. Last year I bought "chocolate" ducklings that turned out black. Both their parents were chocolate, so that was a mystery. I then asked if I could get chocolate of of them and was told no. Well today one of the black & white hens hatched out a clutch. The father was blue. I got 3 colors of ducklings, black, blue, & chocolate! I am very happily surprised!

I'll post pics once she gets off the nest. It's to hard to see the ducklings right now, they just hatched today.
 
good stuff, both parents must carry the chocolate gene, always fun when you can get multiple colour ducklings
