Anyone give insight on what age this little duck is?

Hi everyone!

So my partner has been talking about getting ducks for a while and during the week our friends arrived with a runner duck for him! We’re picking up a second duck tomorrow as I know ducks cannot be alone (our friends did not know that)

They got her at a farmers mart and did not ask her age. I’m just curious if anyone would be able to give some insight into her age from just looking at a photo?

Her colouring is starting to go from yellow to white as her feathers come in, if that’s any help.

Thank you!

Looks like the 2-3 week range.

So precious, Runners are just such cool ducks. I call them the clowns of the barn yard. Be sure to post pics of your new littles when they get introduced.
