    Is that drake feathers I see?

    Ducks are about 3 months old and the 2 thats I thought were females look like they might be getting drake feathers. I'm a first time duck owner so I have no clue what I'm looking at.

    Yeah I was thinking those 2 looking more like rouens as well. And the darker one without the bid might be more of a rouen swedish cross maybe. I also agree that the bibbed one might be black swedish.
