Baby ducks, what breeds are they?

Breeds? Still young a week from what Atwood's said yesterday. Thanks
Black Swedish and a Buff...

My darlings are such fun to watch! We have them in a kiddie pool at the moment and they play Chase going around and around. I have a pie dish with water in it in the middle if they like to swim in bathing. One weird thing that they do though is they knock their beaks on the side of the pool. Makes my husband and I think that someone's at the door. But I do have to say after having the two chickens and a Pekin as babies I do like having the two ducklings if not for comedy reasons alone LOL. One question I do have is I've been putting paper shred in the pool Forum as opposed to straw is that okay? They have a tendency to eat it.

Thats great you enjoy them so much. I love sitting and watching ducklings. So relaxing:)
Mine eat pine shavings sometimes, i just sprinkle a little chick grit into each bowl of feed to help the digest anything like that. So im sure the paper is no more harmful than shavings. If you think they eat alot I would try to make sure it doesnt have harmful ink on it. Otherwise prob fine! Ducklings pick up and eat alot of weird things when they are raised outside with their mom
 
Here are what you guys are guessing, let me know if I got it right

The bottom left is blue swedish
Top right khaki campbell... otherwise i think you have it right
And the bottom right definitely looks golden 300, doesnt look
like a rouen. Your black one is looking more runner like in the shape of its head. Does it stand real tall?
