Wow! Just discovered this thread, looks like a spontaneous mutation. Interesting how it lets the phaomelanin show through, I haven’t seen a gene like that in ducks. It reminds me (sort of) of dominant white. Also, that is the most bright orange I’ve seen on a duck. Buffs tend to be more fawn, imo. I wonder what a little selection could do to bring out that orange splashing. Orange splash.Splash East Indies update. (Splash seems to work better because everyone so far when I say silver assumes that all Blues can create Silver and that's just not how this gene works in the Indies.)
The female is average Black East Indies size the male is big though. I will be working on their size in future breedings.
There are only 2 now because I gave the 2nd male to my friend who "lent" me her East Indie that started me down this path. (I say lent but really I just kept it safe while she was dealing with predator issues. In return i got to use her for a breeding season)
