These are the specimens used for Cantonese roast duck. Whilst as yet uncooked, the species is "window ready": neck stretched, head coked and vertically aligned.
Indian Runners, Kath, they're related (considerable inbreeding), they all look the same and they seem to like copying one another (did I mention the whole inbreeding thing?)
I was going to note, in my previous comment, the propensity of royalty to copy ... same milliner, same gunsmith, same hair-do, same castle interior decorator, and so on.
Ah the "Pre-hung Cantonese" duck.
