So I purchased 2 female ducks off of CL earlier in the week. I already had a trio of Khaki Campbell's - 2 drakes, 1 hen. The drakes were getting a little rough, so I bought two more hens to distribute the hormones. The woman I bought them from got them as mixes - she couldn't tell me much about them. She said they were hatched under a blue swede, but unsure if they were her eggs or who daddy is. Looking for some input.

They're nice looking birds.

I would say they are either part Buff or part Khaki Campbell, maybe with some Swedish in them (one appears to have some white on its neck).
 
Beautiful ducks! I'm glad to hear the comment about the males being too aggressive. I have ended up with 4 males and only 1 female so I may need to seek out additional adult females to do the same.

My drakes were pinning her down until she screamed. I would plan on getting more females for your males, they're going to breed her to death. They're surprisingly aggressive!

You must get more females or even just keep the males and find your female a home. You are going to need at least 3+ females per male and that may not be enough since you have so many males.
