Can anyone tell me what type of ducks these are?  They were purchased at a flea market as a grab bag of eggs.  I can't find any pictures that match.  They are almost 7 weeks old.

I'm thinking they took 35 days to hatch?  Muscovies.

My first guess is Muscovy.  Can you get a pic of their feet?

Nine beautiful Runners, four beautiful Buffs, thousands of beautiful memories and counting.

 

Looking for ducks?  Please consider adopting rescued ducks.  There are many places and people who do rescues, but we are not allowed to post the links due to BYC regs.  So fire up your web browsers and find some sweet, grateful duckies.

Helen: Daria, do you have to look at everything in such a negative light?

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?
