What breed is this?

[Camsmum]

Hi. One morning a few months ago I opened my back door to find my ducks had a new friend with them. She has stuck around and is currently sitting in one egg. I have no idea what breed she is. She is quite tiny. Any ideas?

@Isaac 0 is this a Call? She is gorgeous ❤

Yes, a Blue Magpie Call!

I don’t know much about ducks at all, but maybe it’s a call duck?? Hopefully someone more knowledgeable will help.

And it just showed up! If we could all be so lucky!

I would suggest moving her nest to a secure area if you haven't already, Calls are very prone to predators.

She has chosen to take over my brand new house I had just purchased for my ducks. She is in the nesting area on her egg and I close the run at night. She comes out once in morning and once in afternoon to grab food and have a quick swim. One of my other female ducks shares with her and is laying her own clutch of eggs in there.
