Help me identify these ducklings

I'd say Rouen.

Rouen, too large to be newly hatched woodies, bills are wrong shape. Rouens make good pets since they won't/can't fly away unlike woodies who would need a large enclosed flight pen.

Well, I guess I'll just have to wait and see. I left the brooder door open Sunday as I was getting fresh food & water. They made a mad dash for freedom. I caught 2 as they were slipping through the 2x4 fence. I figured the other 4 were lost as I just couldn't catch them and had to leave. Was really happy to find the run aways inside the shed snuggled up against the door to their brooder area when I got home. I've also discovered just how messy 6 ducks can be! One duckling w/chicks wasn't so bad but 6.....(#7 choose to stay with Baby Huey & the Show Girl chick). Plan on sticking it out just to see what they are. Husband would be soooo happy if turns out to be Woods Ducks!

no wood duck in there at all!!! they dont look like woodie ducklings and she said the eggs were the size of a large chicken egg, WAY TO BIG for a wood duck a wood duck egg is simillar to ping pong ball but pointier.

that's right, plus the eye stripe is wrong for wood ducks and the bill would have a pinkish tip to it, also the wrong eye stripe for mallards.

Thing is, 75% of ducks look like this in color when they are babies, so the color doesnt narrow down much, any mallard patterned duck will have ducklings this color. The eye strip patter is what tells one from another. I'm not familiar with this one, so it's most likely just some domestic breed, as mentioned, rouen is a good guess.
