How did this happen? These ducklings were hatched from eggs bought from a Saxony duck breeder. I've been to this farm and there are only Saxony ducks on the property. The only explanation is a throwback to the German Pekin, one of the three breeds used to create the Saxony breed. I've incubated hundreds of Saxony eggs and on occassion there have been ducklings lighter in colour but always with the distinct facial lines and other plumage characteristic of the Saxony.

The Saxony ducks have to be one of the easiest breed of duck to raise. I love incubating their eggs and they do lay a good number of eggs. The ducklings actually like one another. They are friendly and some truly like to cuddle. I encourage anyone who wants to try ducks on their homestead to research the Saxony.

The Saxony duck, 8-9 lbs, is an active forager and excellent layer with typical egg production at about 190-240 large white eggs annually. Flavorful meat. Adapts well to a wide range of environments.

Saxony Duck - The Livestock Conservancy

The Saxony has an intriguing history. "In eastern Germany, Albert Franz of Chemitz began developing a new multi-purpose duck in 1930. He used Rouen, German Pekin, and Blue Pomeranian ducks in his breeding program and introduced this new creation at the Saxony Show of 1934."

Our Saxony ducks are so beautiful and the drakes so handsome. It is October 2023. They have pretty much finished with their molts and now show their distinctive plummage. We have 20 ducks and 5 drakes. Egg production is down to two or three daily. They spend their days foraging the fields around the pond.

I've been hatching Saxony ducklings for the past four years. Every year I introduce a different bloodline by purchasing eggs from reputable Saxony duck breeders. On occassion there will be ducklings lighter in colour. The last hatch for 2023 had not one but two pure white ducklings, sisters "Snow and Lily" White. No Saxony facial markings, no coloured feathers. Possible "German Pekin"? Has anyone had pure white ducklings in their Saxony hatches???
