I got this little guy (well I say little. He's about 5-6 weeks I estimate) at an auction,

But the person didn't say what breed he was (I assume it's a he and I am NOT venting him )

I have posted some pictures,

I've raised Pekin, African/Chinese geese and Muscovy,
I've never seen a duckling like him.
I think he is Rouen or possibly blue Swedish,
I apologize for the lighting
The sun is going down.
I took better photos indoors to compensate
He's gold and black as you can tell, long neck.
Black feet,
VERY annoying, I can't leave for 2 seconds or go 5 feet or he Starts crying lol
Hyperactive.
That could just be his personality but..
Anyway those who have raised Ducks (besides me), help me!

100% not a rouen or mallard. Probably blue swedish... Looks like my black Swed.

Do you have any other ducks? Ducks are social animals they need their own kind. That cage is not really ideal for ducks.

We free-range them.
The cage is just until he's big enough.
I don't plan on keeping him in it lol
It's just for safety.

We have 2 Perkins, a Muscovy and lots of geese.
The Muscovy has bonded with the geese strange enough.

And I live in Florida.
Are blue Swedish commonly sold? I've never seen one.

I believe the Swedish is not so common. The blue can only be made with a black and silver! Definitely special !! I have a black straight run im going to keep the lil one regardless of sex! U can always add more females!!!

Hopefully he will breed with the Muscovy we have.
That's what we're hoping for.

I don't think she's a pure-bred.
