LOL, yeah, if he can lift those heavy ducks up and swallow them whole, he's gotta be a monster!

I'm going to name him Snowball, I think.

I only name the ducks I see often.

White and Snowy are in no way related. They are two completely different genes. Of course, it is possible to get Snowy breeding Grey to White, but it is possible to get virtually anything breeding to White as the White masks all other colors when a bird has two copies of the gene. There is always another color lurking under the White and as I said, that could be anything. In contrast, Snowy is created by harlequin phase dusky. It is a completely different set of genes. A solid White bird may carry the genes that create Snowy or they may not. They are no more likely to than any other color.
