In the Beginning

Each of these ducks is an offspring of a grey duck and buff drake. You can see the vast array of colors of genetic diversity. As breeders we look at what trait we like or suit’s a given man made breed standard, then we isolate it. This is done by breeding desirable traits and culling undesirable traits. By the third generation you have locked in a trait. On occasion you will get a throw back of one of the original colors or traits mixed in the gene pool. As the variety of each species were placed on Noah's Ark, they were dispersed and spread to different locations while adapting to their environment. The strongest survived, while the original genetic information remained intact. God has created what environment and man has isolated.

 

Genesis 7

² Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.
³ Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.
⁴ For yet seven days, and I will cause it to rain upon the earth forty days and forty nights; and every living substance that I have made will I destroy from off the face of the earth.
⁵ And Noah did according unto all that the Lord commanded him.

Genesis 8
¹⁵ And God spake unto Noah, saying,
¹⁶ Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.
¹⁷ Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.
¹⁸ And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him:
¹⁹ Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, and whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth out of the ark.
 ²⁰ And Noah built an altar unto the Lord; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
²¹ And the Lord smelled a sweet savour; and the Lord said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.

Genesis 9
 And God spake unto Noah, and to his sons with him, saying,
⁹ And I, behold, I establish my covenant with you, and with your seed after you;
¹⁰ And with every living creature that is with you, of the fowl, of the cattle, and of every beast of the earth with you; from all that go out of the ark, to every beast of the earth.
 ¹¹ And I will establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
 ¹² And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:
 ¹³ I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
 ¹⁴ And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
 ¹⁵ And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
 ¹⁶ And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.
 ¹⁷ And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.
