Buff or saxony?
I just got these three (along with some fawn&whites and pekins) from TSC. Can anyone tell the difference? A and B look identical, even if they're impossible for me to guess breed, but C looks different - is she not the same as them??- SoggyForks

Hope
This is hope. Three days she laid lifeless like this, I honestly thought she wasn’t going to make it. But with a little TLC from my self and my wife, we managed to give her a glimmer of ”HOPE” She is now the head duck and she is so beautiful with a really perky personality.
