I ordered a black cayuga and rouen duckling, I picked them up a couple weeks ago. I noticed though my "black cayuga" has an awful lot of yellow on her chest, it as got some black spots over the past week,
is this normal? or is she a different breed?
I has this issue with my other duck Gabby, I was told she was a Runner but could be a Khaki Cambell, which is fine, I thought she was a runner for the first couple weeks then i noticed she is not the same body shape as my runner Zeke. so I said OK she a Khaki, and then I noticed she has grown the pretty blue tips on her wings, so I am pretty darn sure she is a Rouen. I am fine with that. I also wen through thinking she was female, then male now I know she's a female lol

so this is Pippa the one that I thought was a black cayuga (the one with the black bill) Louie is the other which should be a rouen

any suggestion on if these are the breeds I was told?
thank you
 
Fairly certain that Gabby is a Rouen. I have very little doubt in that. She is definitely not a Khaki Campbell.
Pippa is not a black Cayuga, you are right. Maybe she is a Rouen? She does not match the description of other breeds that I know of.
