Yes a few. These seem very different than typical Australian spotted ducks.

Yes you got lucky. Look up living River Farms he has a video that shows a white blue head hen. No one else has them. All Blue spots start white and the blue drakes throw all the colors

The bird in the front is a Blue Drake did you get one like that?

The one on the right is a blue hen. I have a blue hen that is all brown and i had to do a lot of research to find the lighter colored one but it is on the living River Farms video.

I am hoping the one on the back right is a brown hen as adults they look identical to a Pintail hen. You can tell your birds are spots they have shorter necks and bills and they have the hen Pintail type tail feathers. Please keep sending pictures as they get bigger too I'm tracking all the colors my blue is throwing.

If you have one that is more white than the one on the living River Farms video with large blue wing patches that is a snowy. I have two of them also they throw beautiful birds also. A blue drake mated to a snowy hen will almost always produce a blue head or a snowy.

I have mated my snowy with my green head drake and that has produced green heads blue heads and snowy birds

The girl in North Carolina bought my eggs specifically because I had snowy birds that no one else has she got 2 white birds and 5 green heads. She found them on line also.

I’ll capture some photos of mine. I believe they’re molting right now though. I definitely have some snowys. I’ve had blueheads before and they were very different than these.

It looks like you got 4 snowys. Is the silver male a spotted duck? I can't wait to see what they produce together. No one else got a snowy but you green heads and blues.

I sent extra eggs so you would get a verity. And the girl that wanted snowys got green and blues.
