    What Roo for mixed flock?

    Just squired to ducklings that were supposed to be golden hybrids but gave a strong suspicion the feed store may have got them mixed up. They are four weeks old and coming out in white feathers...does anyone else know if goldens can be white or do I have two Pekins? Doesn't really matter, love...
