Help Identifying Ducklings

[jakebata06]

We just received our ducklings today. We were supposed to receive 3 cayuga ducklings. I thought cayuga ducklings were supposed to be mostly all black. Do you think these are all Cayugas or could we have a different breed?

They don't look like cayugas to me. Which hatchery did you order from?

The dark one is a cayuga, the other 3 are not.

The three yellow and black ducklings look like anconas

They came from Cacklehatchery.

Thanks mamachick I was thinking the exact same thing!

I'm thinking the black is a cayuga and the other 3 might be anconas.

I would call the hatchery and let them know you did not get what you ordered.


They are ancona's - without knowing where they came from, I didn't want to hazard a guess if the hatchery didn't sell them.

We called cackle hatchery and they asked us to send pictures of them. We are still waiting for a reply.

Yup, anconas for sure!
