Is this a Mallard or Rouen duckling?

Not too familiar with either breed. Thoughts?
They are 2 weeks old (hatchery stock)

Check if they have a back toe on each foot. Domestic Mallards are required to have one removed to distinguish them from wild ones. I suspect yours are Rouens. Let us know please.

Oh, I did not know that! All digits accounted for. I thought Rouen at first due to the face markings but she still seems so small compared to the Pekin and Buff Orpington ducklings of the same age

Some grow at different rates.
