The ducks in the metzer farms ad

hi,
well this is a random question, but my curiosity takes over sometimes so it would be really great if someone could answer my question:

In the metzer farms ad that says "keep your ducks in a row" what are the breeds of ducks in the photo? theyre just so cute!
Ok, thanks for dealing with my random thoughts!

Where is the ad?

it comes up at the top once in a while.

Rouen, Welsh?, Pekin, Buff or fawn and white runner Buff? Mallard, Pekin I think, Blue Swedish

Rouen, Blue Swedish, Pekin and Fawn & White Runner in the left picture.
Enjoy!

Wow! You got an answer straight from the source!

I have contacted them a number of times- in different ways concerning this one... Love to know more about these birds but I have yet to receive an answer.

What did you need to know? I am sorry if we missed your queries.

Hi John,
Firstly- I would love to know exactly what colour you call these birds- and are they a project ready to be added to your list of colours available? I do know that between countries there are slight variations between what is recognised or what may be included in the standards of perfection.
I am most interested in talking with anyone around the world who keeps Harlequin, Silver and Cinnamon Runners. They are all just so rare and seeing them om your sight was a great surprise. Having been a member on this site for a while now- there has been a great interest from a number of member about some of these rarer colours that are not currently available in many places.

I have been breeding Harlequin Runners for a few years now- I was also trying to work on the Cinnamon runners- but that has now taken a back seat while I spend a season or two on crested Runners. Here in Australia- things are so very different from the USA - as you can imagine without the ability to post ducklings- so sourcing birds- and finding others around also working on certain colours can be very difficult at times.

Thanks so much- and I am really glad you found this thread.
