Hello all -
Long story, but I hatched out the below 10 baby ducklings in my sports bra after they pipped.
Could you please identify which are from which dad. There are 3 dark ones - one of which is a grayish color and 7 yellowish ones - surprising no two are exactly alike - some have grayish heads and differing marks on their bills.
All the eggs were layed by two silver appleyard banty ducks and possible dads are 1 appleyard and 2 call ducks (one of which I was told is blue fawn). 1 HUGE muscovy drake but I have NEVER seen him mount one of the tiny appleyards. Thanks for your help.
Pic taken this morning - May 12. Chicks are 1-2 days old
Possible parents taken in December - Appleyard moms are on the upper & lower right sides - appleyard dad has the green head on upper left and the two calls dads are lower left.
