Swedish?

Guess my other post was a bit long, sorry! Quick question, then—4 week old (pretty sure female, first of my 3 to kind of quack) getting in her feathers. Was told she was a Black Swedish/mix. Is this a common feather color for Swedish, or is this something else? So pretty, just didn’t expect the copper accents!

Here’s a better pic. Not sure why sideways??

Cool. Although I think it’s a female based on her voice changing to a sort-of quack first—why do you think male?

300 males have white rings around the neck, but I didn't see you say she was a mix.

Yeah, they were from a very integrated mixed backyard flock, so doubt she/he is specifically a Golden 300 (now that I researched what that is, lol). She/he was fully black as a young duckling, but I’m sure she/he’s at least a generation or more from the sex linked G300. We’re in Hawaii so limited breeds around.

Whatever she is, she's gorgeous!
