Mixed breed ducks

[JimmyGdm]

I'm interested to see what kind of cross breed ducks people on the forum have bred - both in terms of utility and general appearance. Pictures welcome

I have 5 Mixed breeds in the incubator. All are half runner. The other half we will see if hatched.

Someone else had the same idea. Here is a link to it:

Your sexlinked baby pic is the one I referred to when I found out mine most recent babies that are 3 weeks old now were going to be sexlinked. Unfortunately, only 6 of 15 hatched. And what are the chances that they were all female? Pretty crazy huh lol. We had some pretty wonky weather with extreme highs and lows along with some flooding while she was sitting, so I think that had a lot to do with it. The temps got up to 95 and then it rained for a week straight all while a cold front came through and the temps dropped into the 40's.

All girls, that’s awesome!

I actually screenshot your picture about a week before they hatched to refer to. After they hatched I probably looked at it a million times because I was in disbelief that they were all females. Here they are now at 3 weeks old. We've already rehomed 2 of them, but they all looked identical in color. The one on the right looks slightly darker, but it was just the lighting.
