One of my five Swedish ducks finally decided to go full broody! She’s on seven due to hatch around New Years.

Silver, or maybe it's lavender. This color is called different things in different breeds. Ducklings are brown, have the proper bib. Adults are darker silver than the Splash adults. This is not a showable color, but the duck is purebred Swedish.

Blue juvenile. Juvenile feathers. There's still baby fuzz on his rump, over his tail.

That's a Pekin behind him. Exactly the same age, to the day. Even though all you can see is the chest of the Pekin, the size difference is really obvious.

Here is one of them! They all look exactly alike.So they appear to be either black Swedish or Cayuga ducklings they don't seem to have enough white to be Swedish what do you guys think?

Just found this thread. I have 2 blacks, one blue and a blue/Cayuga mix breed. I love them, they have the most amazing colors. My female black is my alpha, she definitely runs the show around here. I'm hoping to get 6 more girls this spring to add to the brace. I look forward to getting to know y'all and your Swedes.

These are my Swedish ducks! They are fully grown now, but I love this picture of them when they're babies.
