Wouldn't "Das Mädchen sieht eine schwarze Ente" translate to "The girl sees a black duck" and "Das Mädchen sieht eins schwarze Ente" translate to "The girl sees one black duck"?

No, the numbers also need to be changed depending on the gender of the noun they follow/describe

Because Ente is feminine and feminine+accusative is "eine schwarze". Schwarzes would be for neuter+accusative like "ein schwarzes Ei". And, I believe, masculine+accusative would be "einen schwarzen Hund".
