Shetland duck

The Shetland duck is a breed of domestic duck originating in the Shetland Islands of Scotland.

[6] The Shetland duck is thought to have evolved from the Pomeranian or Swedish Blue, due to its similar appearance.

It is thought that the Vikings brought the Shetland to the British Isles[5][7] The Shetland is a small, hardy breed; it is active and forages well.

[8] The bill and legs are black in the duck: in the drake, the legs may carry some orange, and the bill may be tinged with yellow.

[8] The Shetland is a good layer; the eggs are of a good size and range in colour from white to grey.
