What kind of duck is this?

[crj]

I know this duck is a female and she lays a pretty blue/green egg. She was a rescue that came with 2 male mallards, 2 pekin/runner mixes and 2 female runners. I'm sure she is a mix but of what I have no idea. Thanks in advance.

Looks like it could be a Cayuga mix.

It does't have the beetle green color and is bigger.

Cayuga mix. If she's a fairly big duck probably cayuga rouen mix. Or just your average barnyard who knows what duck possibly.

I would imagine a barnyard mix but if it were Cayuga wouldn't it have at least beetle green colors in her feathers? She's just plain black ALL over...... lol. She's a nice duck and a bit bossy once in a while. ha! thanks.

Not necessarily. Depending upon what she was mixed with certain colors could counter act the green shine added to the black feathers

Though she looks too big to be a runner mix, I'm thinking there may be some runner in her if she is laying a blue/green egg!

But it could be that she is a runner/pekin mix. That would explain the size and body on her as well as the green egg

What about runner/rouen? Or, depending on the flock history, runner/cayuga/rouen . . .

She's pretty!
Even if she is a mutt-duck!
