Based on what the other said, yes. What color are the parents? -Kathy

My little one's momma is my Grey and her daddy is either my Snowy or my Grey! White is also in my Calls bloodline!

This one is snowy This one is white

Both ducklings look like my duckling! Lol, are you saying my little one looks Snowy or White?

Ahhh! The momma & her babies are beautiful!

LOL the two babies look different. See the top one has a slight grey tinge to everything? Even her legs and beak. The bottom one has bright yellow and bright orange. So have a look at yours and if there is a slight grey tinge to everything like the top picture she's snowy if she's dayglo yellow and orange she's white.

Lol, only time will tell

Do you have a dried out pic? I couldnt tell that well because he looked wet. But I am with the others now. I didnt know the feet trick!

Snowy tend to have darker spots to their bill and silver eyeliner and sometimes silver stripes down the back. My snowy babies Usually look like they're wearing sunglasses.

look at the second pic where you can see its feet. The toes are grey tinged.

Unbelievably cute and you get to hold the sweet little things. Lucky you!!

What color parents make a snowy?

-Kathy

snowyXsnowy is the only sure way. I've heard of people breeding white and grey and getting it but both parents must be recessively carrying the harlequin gene.

those are babies from 2 years ago. I've got 3 trying to hatch and should hatch today or tomorrow. Excited for my first snowy babies of the year!

I did once a few years ago with my original pair. Placed like 3 or 4 I think our of 10 or so snowy. I've since been working on my line so I can do better.
