My husband got me these 2 beautiful babies to add to my flock! I'm not sure what they are, the slip says "assorted ducks" and they are from Hoover's Hatchery. Is anybody able to help me with breed identification? My older ducks are all Khaki Cambell, they looked very different than these cuties as ducklings! These little ones both look like different breeds! Thanks in advance!! ☺☺

Could you get a picture of them standing from the side? In the pictures you provided, they look as if they have a more upright stance than a regular duckling. They may be some type of runner duck.

Thanks for the pictures! Do you know if the first duckling always stands upright like the second duckling? It looks like the first duckling is crouching. If yes, I’m going with them being some type of runner, unless as they continue to mature they lose their tall stance.

They only stand tall like that when I try to take pictures of them...I think the camera scares them...but they both stand like duck #2 and waddle around their brooder...they are positively adorable!!
