Help w/ Identifying Duck Egg Breed

[Mudstar4ever]

Hi all! Picked up my two duck eggs from a local farmer on Craigslist today!!

Would love your help with identifying the breeds. I don't know what the drake-to-hen breakdown is, but the eggs came from breeds including: Cayuga, Blue Swedish, Silver Swedish, Fawn/White Indian Runner. Now, based on the below image and my research, my educated guess is that I have a Silver Swedish on the left and a Fawn/White Indian Runner on the right. But would love to hear from the experts!

Both eggs are light tan/white in color. Probably safe to rule out Cayuga given the color (not gray/black by any means) nor is there a blue hue, so I don't think there are any Blue Swedish. What are your guys' thoughts?

Bump! Anyone have any ideas?

Bumping this again - at day 3, the taller egg (which I think is the Fawn & White Runner) is starting to develop. Not seeing anything in the smaller egg yet.

Just want to be sure I have a pretty good idea so I can do my homework.

Did your eggs hatch? Were you able to figure out what they were?

Did they hatch??

Ahh yes!! Sorry for the delay! One ended up being infertile, but the taller egg on the right hatched me an adorable little Black Swedish! (Not a Runner, he's just standing up to look over the side. )

Why did you get only 2 eggs? Just curious.

Great question! We’re new to ducklings so we wanted to start off with a smaller more manageable flock. We also already have three Cayuga ducklings we bought from a neighbor!
