Out of my eight new ducklings, I have three or four who look like they will be solid white in color, they are all in their ugly duckling stage and are just getting some big duck feathers.

The crosses are:


Buff x Mallard
Buff x Domestic bibbed mallard
Buff x MallardxBuff

So , any clue who is the father of which bunch?
I have three white ducklings
one that looks like a pure mallard baby ( there was four but a snake got three)
and the rest are all a little mixed colors



So, any clue as to who is he dad of which bunch?
I can post pictures of the parents if needed, but i dont have any recent pictures of the ducklings. Ill try to get some with in the next day or so.
 
I'm just guessing, but I would say the Buffx mallardxbuff

I bet when they feather out good they will have a buff or off-white look to them. I have some Buffx rouen xbuff mixes that look white right now, but they will be off-white when they feather out.

I woudl love to see pics
