NOT always accurate!!! My Mallard babies had 2 stripes as babies & they are DEFINITELY Mallards..
Mallard - One eye stripe
Rouen- Two eye stripes
Did you order them from a hatchery? It's always worked for me on pure Mallards.NOT always accurate!!! My Mallard babies had 2 stripes as babies & they are DEFINITELY Mallards.
TSC babies, so yes, hatchery stock.Did you order them from a hatchery? It's always worked for me on pure Mallards.
Nope...DEFINITELY Mallards. They are coming into adult feathering at just under 3 months & are no where near big enuf to be rouens. I have a KC, a B&W Magpie, a Blue Swedish, & a black runner who are as big as the 2 Mallards are & they are only 3 1/2 weeks old. Even my 2 rouen/call mixes are bigger than my Mallards and they are only 2 months old.every pic i have looked at shows mallard babies with one eye strip and rouen with 2 even cackle hatchery will tell you this and so will other hatcheries. my 2 hatchery mallards only had one eye strip and it works 100% of the time. are you sure the hatchery didnt send tsc the wrong birds that got labeled wrong?
Most of the Mallards from hatcheries aren't really Pure Mallards anymore. They've been bred with too many things. There more just small grey ducks nowadays .TSC babies, so yes, hatchery stock.
