Besides television and storybooks, the American Pekin is likely another reason many people think all ducklings are yellow. The American Pekin is one of the most popular domesticated ducks in the world. These ducks date back to 1872 when a farmer in Connecticut brought them from China. These are large ducks with white feathers and an orange bill. The ducklings of this bird are bright yellow and look like the ones we see on television.
