To me, they both look like runners....how does it walk upright? I had runners and when they are calm, they walked like normal ducks....when they were alert they were standing straight up

You more then likely have two females :) And yes it's that time of year for molting...my pekins are currently and they are looking a little haggard lol

I never separated mine, but the momma's did a wonderful job running everybody off that went by her ducklings

Looks sort of brownish...but I guess it explains it. I know atleast one is laying as I find an egg nearly every morning. I didn't know their bills changed color like that. They also seem to be going through molt..thank you for the info :)

What could it possibly be? I have tried wiping it off thinking they were just dirty as they didn't come from the most stellar conditions. They are pekins. We just got 2 ducks and a drake. The drake looks fine, but the females look like...

Duck Diaper 

From what I have read this is very normal drake behaviour....the boys can be such a nuisance!

I know you have already gone to the vets lol but I had this happen with my flock when I switched them over to Flock Raiser.....mostly just the males, even the gander, once I switched them back they were fine!
