Greenhunter Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Mmm! never seen blue unless you mean the iridescent green/blue heads the drakes have. It will be some sort or cross-breed, Mallards will try it on with just about anything if there's a female shortage. Bit like me really GH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayano3 Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Have you actually seen this a very close quarters...I believe its due to the light conditions and angle your looking from. Unless like above its some cross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
