Hi-I’m looking for your thoughts on our duck! Pico is about 14 weeks old and came from a local feed store. Sold as black Swedish, but I wasn’t expecting that much green. Thoughts?? Here’s a few photos of Pico from this morning with the rest of the crew.
Thanks!

The "green" feathers are not actually green, but black and what you are seeing is called the Tyndall Effect. True black will appear green because of the way the light is reflecting off of the feathers.
