Was this in the same pond as the brown Normandy goose?

I don't think so, this duck was in the ocean or Sequim Bay at least (saltwater) and it would fly with the other green headed ducks back and forth between a pond on the other side of the road and Sequim Bay so I don't know maybe !!!  :dunno:

The big question to ask is, how did it taste?

My brother has a cross b/t a rooster chicken and a duck out by his place, wierdest looking thing I have ever seen...

ummm, it is not genetically possible!

wonder if its an indian runner duck they are kinda goofy looking might think it was part chicken.....

the domestic ducks can fly but if they are exotic domestics fancy drakes are typically pinioned (last segment of the wing is removed) so they cannot fly, when we had a pair that is what was done to them as hatchlings so they never could fly.

My buddy has an Albino mallard hen mounted. A flock of mallards came in and he busted that one. It's an awesome bird.

there's been a bunch of domestic/wild crossbred ducks on the lower kalama river for many years now.  they look like big mallards, some have white blotches on them.
you can still get gas in heaven, and a drink in kingdom come,
in the meantime, i'll be cleaning my gun

I'm not a duck expert by any means but you can usually tell the difference between a domesticated duck and a wild one if you know what you're looking for.
