I got this duck named mistery. From are purebred blue swedish. Is she a true white swedish? I do not live in Australia.. she doesn't have pink eyes so she's not albino but could she be partially albino?

We got them from metzer's hatchery alarm is definitely pure because she she is show quality. Cuddle Quack has black spots on bib which is normal in the breed but is still a show quality duck. I have seen it called rare white swedish ducks in AustraliaShe's indeed white Here in the US we don't have whites, as far as I know, but they could exist if someone went through the trouble to breed white in and then worked to get the type correct on them.
White is recessive, so both of her parents, though they are not white, are carrying white. So this duckling got two copies, and white always expresses with two copies. It's more likely that her parents are crosses that just so happen to look like swedish ducks (which happens a lot, especially with crosses with pekins; I had a pekin cross that most would have called a black swedish if they were just considering his coloring) and they carry white. Very potentially they are actually pekin crosses.
Do you know with 100% certainty that her parents are purebred swedish, and their parents were purebred swedish, etc etc? If yes, then it's always possible that at some point a while ago, someone bred white into the line, and then bred back to the swedish type.
