这种品种的名称可能只是用来帮助出售鸟类。因为异国情调和外国poultry breedswere very popular in the United States and could command a better price.

有些人说东印件鸭可能已经从北部开发凫sport duck. While others say that the black gene may have arrived from the American black duck.

无论是什么解释，由于它的尺寸较小，并且醒目的羽毛，它在育种者中很受欢迎，并且主要被家禽鸽友展开展览目的。

该品种于1865年在英国标准化。并于1874年录取了美国家禽协会的完善标准。
