thinking of getting ducks

[TSOWOATNKC]

This is what I find when I search aliduck.

Are they tiny? Could they be calls?

there similar in size as the pekin duck but little bit smaller tho, and are said to be good layers

hahaha yeah, it's better to search for aliendur because that's what Iceland calls them (endur means ducks on Iceland) and these ducks are called aliendur here, haha sorry for the confusion

I tried to find them by googling and nothing came up the pictures you posted though are gorgeous...

okey, I google duck breeds and I can't find any breed that is similar to them, so what I'm thinking now, maybe this is a breed only found in Iceland? I mean Iceland has there own chicken breed maybe they have there own duck breed to, Iceland also have something called aligæsir (gæsir means geese) so maybe Iceland has there own ducks and there own geese just like they have there own chickens, I don't know tho.

I asked to join a Icelandic duck group on Facebook and when I get approved in there I can ask there if this is a Icelandic breed and if not what there called in English

but I have found out on Facebook post that the aliduck lays green eggs and cream color eggs, there are many people that has this breed her but I can't find anything about them on google either, only these picture but no info about this breed :/

The first picture that pops up when you google that appears to be silver appleyard ducks. The ones that you can also see in some pictures, those that appear to be black with a white bib, look like what you can get if you cross pekins with other breeds. In those pictures, I see pekins, what are probably appleyards, and these black ducks as well, so they are probably cross breeds of the two breeds.

There you go, shattering my dreams of an indigenous duck breed that has an alligator head.

okey thank you, I have no idea, haha, I have just know pekin ducks and aliendur (aliducks ) have been here in Iceland since before I was born and now when I was thinking of getting duck I wanted to read about the breed but I can't find anything about the aliendur (aliducks) I'm now just waiting for being accept in that Icelandic duck side to ask for info there, haha
