I'm trying to identify the brown ducks I own (not the Pekins)

The middle one has a dark head with white collar, so that may be a male or a different breed? It looked different to the others as a duckling and seems too young to have drake colors??

Of the others one has a pink bill and the other is black.

They are 7 weeks old from tractor supply.
Thanks
 
Some kind of mix? They are khaki (chocolate dusky) but they have white markings on the neck.
 
My wife just saw online the "Golden 300 hybrid".
I'm thinking that's it? What do you think.

To me they look like a white-bibbed dusky Rouen with either Pekin or Aylesbury mixed in, could be a Campbell/Pekin as well, tractor supply sells plenty of mixed breeds that are hard to identify lol

The hens look like it but the drake doesn’t. So maybe?

I don’t know what they are but I know what they’re not: not purebred, not Rouen.
 
The duck in your avatar is really cute.
Thank you! We like her. I agree with you about the chocolate, but are there faint eyestripes?

I believe Tractor Supply uses Hoover Hatchery. I would look at what they sell. That is why I said maybe Golden Cascade. If the drake was a Golden 300 he would not be sex-linked brown (chocolate) and they all appear to be. What did they look like as ducklings?
 
Faint maybe
But we are talking this
