So I bought 4 ducks from our local CO-OP they are about 6 weeks old. They were suppose to be female 300's, which by the way is one of the most expensive ducklings they sell. I have a number of other 300's females, and three males already. My question is these ducks don't look like female 300's to me. At least one of them maybe a male 300, the other three I'm just not sure. Like I said I have had 300's before and I've had Khaki Campbells to, but I'm not really good with other duck breeds. I don't really need to know what breed these ducks are I'd just like someone to agree that they are not female 300's or to set me straight if I'm wrong.
Thanks,
Rob

They dont look like Golden 300's to me.Probaly a campbell.
 
I'm sorry I wasn't clearer. I do not by my ducklings from Metzer Farms but from a local coop. Yes, they were suppose to be Golden 300 hybrid layer, which does have Khaki in them. I thought the golden 300s were pretty common maybe I'm wrong. I'm sorry the pics aren't better, I did the best I could one evening after work. It's suppose to the easy to tell the males and females 300s apart by color. I was hoping someone with 300 experience would give some insight as to whether or not these are actually 300s. Thanks for the help so far.
 
Thank you HolderenFarmgirl. That is really what I'm thinking, but before I go asking for a partial refund from the place I bought them from I wanted at least one other person to agree that they don't look like 300s.
