    As the others said, it is perfectly normal. Many birds, mallards included, change coloring as they become mature. That's why in bird books, you'll often see an illustration for the immature bird and then one for the mature bird.

    Don't worry! He's a male duckie. Males are supposed to look like that. They're called "Drake" ducks. If you want to know how I know this, my dad used to hutn ducks with his pointer,Criag, but lets not get to much into it
