I got them a couple weeks ago and they were small and completely yellow but are now turning white, I had already narrowed it down to probably pekin or muscovys, I was thinking muscovy because someone said they stand very horizontally? Anyway just let me know any information you can get from my ducklings just from looking at them, thanks! If anyone has advice on uploading a video that would be appreciated!

I just took some more and see what might be the hook, let me know if they help! Ive always seen a different color at the tip of their beaks.

Nope I'm highly positive they are not muscovy! All ducks contain that spot of odd flesh at beak tip so they can easily sense food by touch when foraging but muscovy have very pointy hooked tips and yours do not!
 
Awesome thanks for the replys, one of their beaks is very pink compared to the others and I dont see that spot too much. Anything to worry about there? Oh and also I heard that you can get a hint at whether theyre male or female from the feather growth, any ideas with these guys?
