Orpington duck
The Orpington is a British breed of domestic duck. It was bred by the poultry farmer William Cook of Orpington, which at that time was in Kent in south-east England. Blue examples of the breed were shown in London in 1896, and buff birds in 1897. In the twenty-first century only the buff is a recognised breed, and so may also be known as the Buff Orpington. It is a dual-purpose breed used for meat and egg production, and is capable of laying up to 220 eggs a year.
