Duckling ID Trivia, name the breed.

Since Ideal doesn't sell either of those, not likely. Here is the link to their site: https://www.idealpoultry.com/products/4. They are very cute!
Soooo they are getting bigger, lol, growing like weeds.
I can’t believe how the yellow ones have changed in such little time. In one day they actually looked completely different with their colors changing. They no longer look yellow.
Do you still think these are Buff Orpingtons?

Wow, this is tough. I do not have Buff Orpintons but they sure don't look like the pictures I am finding: http://cheepsandquackers.blogspot.com/2016/03/20-weeks-of-buff-orpington-ducks.html
They remind me of my Welsh Harlequin (I only have one but here is a link to another person's Welsh babies: https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/welsh-harlequin-ducklings-sexing.1141152/). Problem is, Ideal Poultry doesn't sell those, at least on their website. The only thing close that they have is the Snowy Mallard?! But, I would expect Snowy Mallards to be smaller than your supposed Cayuga or Blue Swedish ducklings. Maybe Ideal is getting into other breeds than are listed on their website because I really want to say that you have two Welsh Harlequin and two Black Swedish and Ideal doesn't carry either of those. Hopefully others with more experience with other breeds will chime in.
 
I have the answer! You have two black Swedish and two Snowy Mallards. My curiosity got the best of me and I cheated and contacted Ideal. They looked at your pictures and said that is what they are. Mystery solved!
 
Lol

Cheater! :lau
Now why in the heck did I not think about doing that. Lol
The Black Swedish seemed to be easy but as for the other two it was difficult.
