I'm out of town right now. I'll snap some new pictures when I get home. They haven't changed much (just gotten bigger) since the last pictures. I'm pretty certain at this point that they are mules. They are both smaller than I expected with some Muscovy in them... but that has turned out to be a...
Ok duck experts, I have another question for you. It's been a few months since I started this thread and I still don't have a clue as to the gender(s) on these two. They look he same as the picture from a few months ago. The smaller one is about the size of my smallest (on the petite size)...

These two are about a month old... from a school hatch project and nobody seems to know what kind they are. I initially thought Moscovy because they have a large flat tail and claws on the back but I'm not sure. Neither makes much noise. The lighter one does a quiet almost quack noise. The brown...
