    Well, a Chocolate x Trout mating should produce all Chocolate ducklings according to the Duck Color Calculator (which isn't accurate if the parents were carrying any hidden recessive genes): http://kippenjungle.nl/kruisingEend.html

    I     tell you what - I don't know technically what color they are (I'd say Chocolate, but the yellow eye-stripe on the one is throwing me off!), but I guarantee they're going to be brown ducks. [​IMG]

    ok so they are chocolate?

    annarie- Bee ( the one with the eye stripe ) has a yellowish white line going down her belly from her bib, do you think she might just be trout?
