I'm new to the world of muscovies and was wondering if anyone could help me identify what colored ducks I have here. I know the woman who gave me my flock said that they have ripple in their lineage. These were the result of a co-nest of 3 hens with a blue drake. One hen was predominantly black, one bronze, and another a very beautiful grey and white but dont know what her technical color/pattern is called. Ive looked at a lot of examples but dont really have a trained eye for this yet.

One of the mommas (above) who I'm unsure of what her patterning is...and these are the babies. 16 total hatched via our small bronze hen. I def have blues but I'm esp curious about the light lavender grey ones. Are those lavender? Do I have ripples?

They’re beautiful! You might have some barred, but probably will have to wait for adult molt to be sure.
