Definitely not Khaki Campbell. I agree with them being Rouen. Khakis are an overall chocolate brown color over their entire body and head, no real defined markings.
 
Thanks,everybody! Helped a lot and I know a little bit more of what to expect. Can anyone tell me at what age they start laying, and how many how often?

It depends on the duck, but they should start laying at around 20 weeks, give or take. My two that are laying are mallards, and they lay almost every day. One is like clockwork, the other skips a day every 4-5 days. Looking forward to my other four starting to lay, but we have a while to go. They're 9 weeks this Sunday.

If they mature too close to winter, they may not start laying until spring, but again, it depends on the duck.
 
Just letting y'all know...They are both Drakes! No eggs! So...thankfully, I found a GREAT deal on some runners....$3 each for 2yr olds! Now I get plenty every day
