Does anyone know which hatchery Wilco uses for Chicks/Ducks?

I was just wondering...

Did you ever find out the answer? I am wondering the answer to that myself. I just bought a couple ducklings from an assortment they got, no one knew what was what, so I was hoping to find out online where they came from so I can get an answer if they are chocolate runners or khaki campbells. Also, they are not sexed and I'm not expert enough for venting so was thinking of getting a couple more to increase the odds I would have at least one female.

To Bettythegreat: Did you CALL Wilco and ask them where the ducks came from? Sorry, but i don't know anything about ducks other than that they like water. Good luck and best wishes.

I only asked when I was there, and the 'experts' said they didn't know. But when I went back today to look at their new shipment they had another assorted batch, and a batch of what they were calling golden 300s which I got one of, they were all yellow which didn't sound right to me as online that breed is tan or black so maybe he/she is a white layer or pekin. I got two others, which I believe are a blue swedish and a black swedish.

I found out today the local one to me orders from Privett Hatchery I was wondering because my boyfriend got me two Goslings that were supposed to be emden but I'm pretty sure one is a buff saddleback

The one near me gets Cornish X, Barred Rock, Dominant Copper, etc., etc., from Jenks. The others chicks are from Cackle, Privett, and another one I do not remember the name of... Maybe more, but quite the assortment! They only get chicks from NPIP hatcheries.
