Any idea why this one duck's bill looks pink when the rest are orange?

When I googled Ancona ducks in general 99% of the mature pictures have orange & black/green bills. A couple looked very light almost white with the dark patterns on them.

Any ideas or suggestions?

I couldn't really find anything that suggested sickness. Most idea where related to cross breeding, or they simply just had a different color bill, like a phenotype (blond vs brunette). As long as it doesn't indicate a health issue, I'm okay with it. I'd even go as far as saying if it meant somebody might have a white or gray colored bill, well those are pretty cool looking.

They all look very healthy so I wouldn’t worry! Some just like to be different. She’ll stand out in the crowd good Saturday Morning!
