Mallard Duckling
My mallard hen has recently raised 6 ducklings, 2 are like her but the other 4 have strange markings, any ideas ? Black rings round the eyes. Light yellow with evenly marked brown black spots. One of them has sort of a crest on it's head. -

I am new to ducks, in the middle of a big learning curve I have a duck that looks like a Mallard but came to me with a family of Muscovy's. He is big with thick legs and mates with the Muscovy's and now some of the Muscovy ducklings have short tails. Could he be a fertile Moulard ? Thanks.
