SWEDISH Duck Thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These babies just hatched over the last few days. I got the eggs from a friend who said her ducks were Blue Swedish, but may be possibly mixed with another breed? She was not sure.

I've been researching but it is hard to find clear information on Swedish duckling coloring. Can you guys tell me what you think these guys will look like when they are grown? I'm certain two are black Swedish, but I've seen conflicting information about blue and silver duckling coloring. The one I am most curious about is our little yellow duckling. Here are their descriptions and some pictures:

Two are black with yellow bibs, all black beaks and feet.

Two are greyish with yellow bibs, black and tan beaks and feet.

One is all yellow with a tan (definitely not orangey) beak and feet.

The gray one is a blue swedish. The yellow I believe is a silver swedish. Black and silver cross to make blue swedish.
 
It's also dissapointing because I'm not breeding Swedes on account of that was my only duck. If I can find another swede duck (or 2... or 6), I still have two drakes to breed them to. Right now all I have to breed is a project mating.
hey i am wondering how to get to those genetics my first pair is approaching six months and i really want t do cool things with the breed also one more question what happens when i breed 2 silvers together
