These are all straight run. 2 are for sure sipver appleyards (that's what I ordered anyways) amd two are surprise ducks. Are the 2 with light legs the appleyards? I'll post each duckling in its own comment.

#4 I believe to be one of the silver appleyards. I had a labled female one and they looked very similar.

Are you quite sure? Because I don't want to be wrong when I message the hatchery who I bought specific breeds from... I don't want to be rude or make a fool of my self for being incorrect lol!! Btw I'm thrilled about a Welsh Harlequin!
well these are silver applyards (i found these pics online, i don’t have silver appleyard) and the ones you have look exactly like mallards

what hatchery? unless the parents are mixed breeds or one of them wasn’t an appleyard i don’t think they should look like that

I don't think they look like appleyards either. I had one female (arrived almost dead, and is now dead) who was labled and definitely a silver appleyard. Two of these ducks 'should' be appleyards. The other 2 were mixed so no issues with the mallards!
