Duckling help

[SolarDuck]

@Bs11luke, said that he has one muscovy drake and one mallard drake.

Ah alright I did not see that, out of those two I would probably guess it was the Muscovy, but just a guess. The one that is the same color body but a different color bill has the typical Muscovy bill color that I am used to seeing.

Here is one of the other siblings View attachment 2577635View attachment 2577636View attachment 2577637View attachment 2577638View attachment 2577639

I'm no expert by far, but they do stand up like runners.

And her is the 3rd sibling who came out a complete different couler to the other 2..I only incubated 3 eggs and these are the 3 ducklings I’m confused View attachment 2577648

They are all beautiful babies!!

 

[Bs11luke]

Yes, the hybrids don't develop the red caruncles, she looks like a msycovy hybrid to me. Muscovy ducks and ducklings come in many different colors so I think most likely all 3 of the ducklings are also muscovy hybrid. Musvovy hybrids are infertile and cannot have any babies so you will not be able to further breed them if that is what they end up being.

So you think I could have mallard father and the babies are from the small black female? Only reason I think the mallard is the father is because he was the only one I seen doing the deed with her and my Muscovy was never seen near her, but I don’t no what happened in the duck house over night maybe the Muscovy snuck on in at one point while the mallard was sleeping

This is the only photos I could find of him and they are not very good will take some better ones tomorrow, but what do you reckon his breed is?

 

[SolarDuck]

Since he looks like a runner it makes me less certain that your black one has some muscovy. Since he looks like a runner and those are some pretty brown babies it kind of makes me think they may have come from her. Maybe she is just some kind of really cool looking cayuga or east indie mix.

Hmm, I’m not sure (I don’t know much about ducks) but you might get more help if you move this to the ‘what breed or gender is this’ forum

 

[DucksAreBest]

These are the only 2 possible mothers do you still think it could be runner or campbells? View attachment 2577558View attachment 2577559View attachment 2577560View attachment 2577561View attachment 2577563

Is there a picture of the father?

 

[DucksAreBest]

Whoa! What is the green/black one? Is she some type of call duck?

Yes, she is a call duck and the other one is a Saxony.
