[La Mike]

Ruen mallard mix I believe

From a ruen and a white duck

Looks kinda like my Mallard x buff drake as far as the head and body shape goes , but alot lighter.

It's a Saxony. If not Saxony color itself (Saxony is both a color and a breed), then it is one of the similar "pseudo-saxonies". It might also be an Apricot Silver (which is almost the same as Saxony, with the addition of dusky and/or harlequin phase), but I doubt it. It is probably just a pet quality Saxony. There is no way to get double blue dilution and light phase from a first generation cross with a pure Grey bird (like a Mallard or Rouen). The difference is subtle between Goat Walker's and On the Spot's birds, but there is a difference (as Goat Walker already said).

Either way, both birds are stunning! That is one of my favorite duck colors.

Here is a picture of my Overberg drake. Overbergs are Apricot Silver, so very similar to Saxony.

Yeah its a saxony....but fatten it up some, it looks skinny!

Around here that shouldn't be a problem. All of our ducks are pretty darn spoiled

Thanks all for your help. He does look sorta "streamlined" and with a longish neck. I halfway wonder if he has some runner crossed in there. I will have to see if I can track down some eggs to hatch out, or a hen for him. Ya never know what you will stumble across... I already sold two of the ducks this morning, the black one and one of the bigger white drakes. Plus two turkeys. Merry Christmas to mmmeeeeeeee!!! Woot!

He does look a bit like my utility-quality Buff Runner drake (he was only a few months old in these pictures):

No, it would appear to be a "Golden 300 drake" aka a cross. I have seen many of those, and they all look like that. Also, there is a chance it was supposed to be a Black Swedish, but a terrible one.
