Call Ducks Finally Hatched

Who wants to tell me what colors we have here?
Front yellow looks like it had a bluish band over the head and over the eyes, yes? That looks like silver... not sure on the other yellow, I've gotten wide range of colors from ones starting like that... either side is blue fawn... 2nd is blue bibbed... 3rd is blue fawn... 4th I'd say more of black pied, or incorrect pied...

Ok, thanks! I have 4 yellow ones, 3 are looking more silver-ish, 1 is more lemon yellow, like maybe it will turn all white? Is that possible?

Have a couple blue fawn.. they are becoming my favorites, I think.

And I absolutely love the markings on the pied, correct or not! lol. Half black legs, striped toes... adorable.

I missed a couple of black ones. Is there black fawn? Or what would it be if the blue on the blue fawns were black?

White is *possible* out of mine, but highly unlikely... it's recessive and takes 2 copies to make white... I only had a couple whites and they were all ducks, think I only hatched from Io as well, so both parents would have to be from her to make a white... and Io wasn't laying when I sent eggs, plus she throws blue Snowy...

I have a soft spot for blue fawns and the pieds too, lol...

The ones that look like blue fawn but with black instead of blue are greys... greys are 'wild type' or mallard color, blue fawn is simply grey with blue gene added, also called blue mallard... that help? :)

Btw, remember the platinum duckling and it's yellow hatchmate?

Platinum is up top, yellow in middle... interesting colors, no idea yet what they are, lol...

The silvery yellow ducklings will probably be pastels. The duckling in the middle of second pic, looks like it is sporting a pastel pattern. :) Can't really see what the "platinum" one looks like from that pic. Sometimes they go thru interesting color changes.

All ducklings are so cute. Enjoy looking at pics of everyone's ducklings.
