(not sure if it's a difference between gender or just age but the size of the white part on its breast varied between certain birds)... Oh and they wer in a group of about 8-10 individuals.

Plz help!

Thanx!

Sounds like mallards crossed with Aylesburys but hard to tell without a pic - that would be my guess anyway!
