Thanks for posting all your pictures, everyone! Your ducks are all gorgeous! Here's a few pictures of my Welsh Harlequins, and Buff Orpingtons. I picked them up at 730 this morning, and they're all extremely friendly already.

I had my younger sister open the box for me because I didn't want to see any babies that hadn't made it. However, I'm happy to say that all eleven of them are healthy, and full of the zoomies.

I have them in two totes because I ordered some straight run and some sexed. I'll have to take a close up picture of one of my WH. four of them are all obviously silver, but I have one that I'm pretty positive is a gold phase. She's more golden/bronze in color than the black/gray of the silvers.
