The Swedish Yellow Duck, or Svensk Gul Anka, is a very rare duck in Sweden - and not found anywhere else worldwide. It was developed here in Skåne and is thought to have been developed from the Swedish Blue, though there does seem to be some argument around this! Some claim that he must have used Kaki Campbells to improve the breed. Måns Eriksson himself said he used a "white race"... Their appearance causes some confusion, being as the ducks are more beige/brown than yellow.

There were believed to be 145 left in 2004, and in 2001 there were 110. They were relatively common in the 1920s, but post-war they declined, and were thought to be extinct. A small flock was discovered in the village of Billinge (the village where Alledal is located) in 1977, and a program was started to try and build up their numbers.
