Duck ID: muscovy or a cross?

[SkyBlueJar]

Do Muscovies come in these colors, or do you think these birds are some kind of muscovy/mallard cross?

 

[DUCKOBSESSED]

How old are they? I think they look like mules.

have the gotten the fleshy face muscovies have?

 

[SkyBlueJar]

I don't know. This picture was shared by the guy who wants to sell me a duck. He says his birds are 100% muscovy because that's the only breed he keeps. But they look so brown and speckled, I didn't know Muscovies could even be that color...

 

[DUCKOBSESSED]

Same. They are very pretty though.

If all he has is Muscovy then that's all they can be. They just look like a group of juveniles of various mixed colours.

Or he's not telling me the truth. Or his neighbor's mallard drake squeezed through the fence...

They look like young Muscovy's to me.
