Duckling with four legs

Loughborough Echo 1st July 1938

Mr. Mills Bailey, of Barrow Road, Quorn, recently set a hatching of Aylesbury duck’s eggs, one of which produced a duckling with four legs and four wings, all complete and well-formed. The freak died at two days old, and Mr. Bailey is trying to find a means of preserving it.
