You know, I wondered that Dahlia. I mean, first of all the Pekin is heavier, so that may account for some of it. But I wondered if they had a more "fluffy" down still, compared to the Pekin, because they are much younger, and maybe that traps more air? They were very good with their little ducky paddle legs. They looked like little wind-up toys. The Pekin was more sedate.

Oh, btw, one of the original crew has finally developed his little boy curly feather on his tail...so he is very clearly a drake. He has begun to sort of take a leadership type of role, they follow him.
