My black Polish is growing white feathers

How old is she and are you sure she does'nt have White crested blood in her? The reason why I ask how lod she is, is because when some black birds start getting old, they start turning white. I have a Black Swedish duck and she had the normal white bill for a long time, but now, every time she molts she gets more white.
 
She's less than 2 years old. I have no clue if she has white crested in her because I got her off Craigs List several months ago.

Well IDK, I got some pullets from TSC and the two that I assume were polish ended up solid black, and one of them had white in the crest when she was younger.
 
Sometimes a damaged black feather will grow back in as white. It's normal.

Are you sure she's not a Crevecoeur? I think it would be rare to see a Polish that was solid black (in the U.S. anyway...I think it's fairly common overseas).
