They won't be sterile. Only crossing a mallard dirived bird with a Muscovy will end in off spring being a mule. You will just get a bunch of very interesting looking mixed ducklings who can also reproduce.

thank you so much i just got my ducklings a week ago im tryin to do any and all research i can to make sure they are well taken care of i didnt want to separate them since they are all so attached to each other the guy i got them from had a room full of ducklings all mixed in but when they got more mature he keep the breeds separate i wasn't sure if the different breeds mating and reproducing would hurt them thanks again!!! im sure the offspring would be a beautiful bunch!!
