Name this bird

Millie Fluer D'Uccle
And a mallard about to choke on a fish LOL

 

Something you don't see everyday? I have never seen either. That is an awesome mallard pic. Guess he thinks he is a diver.

 

The first bird is clearly a ruby headed floor flusher....duh....

The second is a snake head devouring a Green Head....

 

And everybody holds the mighty greenhead to such high standards. They are opportunistic and eat a wide variety of crap. I will continue to shoot ducks, not just mallards, and eat them all. Great picture Jeremy.

 

Royal Oaks, you beat me to it! The same bird who is the representative for Murray McMurray Hatchery! I always wanted to get my hands on a pair of porcelains...you don't happen to have any eggs for sale do you? ;D

 

Nope Becky I sure dont.. Used to have the millies but majorly down sized my flocks when I got into taxidermy..
check on the poultryeggswappers group.. If you have eggs to swap maybe you can swap for some ... (PS that is a yahoo group btw)

 

I can name it. It's a cross between cool and ugly. Am I right?

 

I am going to say its a mille fluer d'anver, did anyone else notice the rose comb??? It almost looks like the spangling/mottling is on a brassy back base instead of the normal buff/red columbian.

Nice duck, lol

 

I know one thing for sure, I'm using that as my reference photo on the next greenhead I mount!!

 

looks like a chicken to me ;D

 

I had a pair of Millies several years ago. The hen was as sweet as a silkie, the little rooster was a devil. He ended up losing an eye somehow. If you were on his seeing side, he'd get ya. If you were on his blind side, you could pick him up and he was calmly sit there.

 

ill name it, let me think, its name is charlie

 

Kinda Looks like a Grouse, Never seen a mallard eat a fish

 

Hi Mother!
