What color is this little guy? He is the only one I have this color:

Also I LOVE the patterning on this one - it's the biggest guy I have of the babies - just a big fattie! (the one in back). Would s/he be a barred?

I love the barred looking one!

I am also curious about the light brown one. I have one baby (1 week or so old) that is that color. I'm new to this breed so I'm also wondering what he/she will look like!
 
Here is another unusual one. Blue upper part of body and chocolate pied on the underneath and neck.

The white ones all have really pretty blue eyes:

I would call that first baby a chocolate. If I am wrong, then i have been really really wrong- I hatched out nine the same color and sold them as chocolate. I have two now that look identical with mama Muscovy.

The feathers are just coming in and they are much darker than the chocolate brown fuzz.
 
the one on the very top will be a choclate, i also have a barred one like that, and i have a barred blue, and a nother barred one too thats mainly white.
 
I will eventually be selling off a bunch of these when they mature and it will be hard to decided which ones to keep

I think they are all so pretty/handsome.

I'm not really fond of the white BUT they all have the prettiest eyes.
