Funny Photos of Ducks That Look Like 18th-Century Wig-Wearing Aristocrats

When you think about animals with luscious locks, you probably think about lions, or horses, or maybe even golden retrievers. In any case, “ducks” are probably not the first thing that pops into your head. But perhaps it should be.

White and Black varieties of the Crested duck are recognized by the American Poultry Association's Standard of Perfection. But other color varieties such as Buff, Blue and Grey (Mallard coloration) have been developed by breeders. On average Crested ducks weight about 2.7 kg, and drakes about 3.2 kg. And the bantam version weights between 0.9 to 1.2 kg.
