Are you sure they are blues and not black swedish???

They might, mine had their bibs when their feathers started to come in, once they started to change color they got their bibs and they didn't really change a whole lot after that!! But someone with more experience may have a better answer, still new to ducks myself!!!!

Me too (new). But I don't know where they are on their feathering. It seems to me like they've gone through several sets of feathers, and these ones are pretty similar to the previous ones. Their pen is FILLED with feathers.....

Are you asking me, or ducksinvt? I thought (from pictures) that the blues often have black heads with gray bodies, whereas the blacks have both black heads and bodies.

Yes, I believe you are correct, i guess your ducks just looked darker in the pics, like I said, im still a newbie T all this!!! beautiful flock either way, but thats another reason I want to see pics, to see the different colorations of the blues!!!! Thank you for your pic!!!

Here are my Swedish blues today, at 11 weeks of age. As adults, they're supposed to have solid white bibs, and I don't know if they just haven't done their final molt-to-adult-feathers, or if they're not pure-bred (I got them from Heartland Hatchery in Missouri), or what. They're really really fun. They're all looking up because I whistled. There are ten of them altogether. In the second picture, you can see what their backs look like.
