Mystery Duckling!~

[WildThang]

I recently purchased two ducklings. Crested ducklings, One I was told was a rouen duckling. The other was supose to be a rouen duckling. However, I've come to notice some Major diffrences. The one with a black crest has Multicolored feet and Beak! It's beak is starting to lighten up some. It's almost a black and pinkish color.

Can anyone help me figure out this Mystery Duckling!?
Any Input would be nice. And very helpful.




The two ducklings together. A few days ago.

WOW! They are the strangest looking (but cool!) ducks I've ever saw! Boy ducks sure do look different when they grow up. What is that growing? around them? Looks kinda like broccoflower. Probably good your not going to breed them from what I read about crested ducks.

The first time I bought ducks I got them at a farmers market. I got two mallards, two pekins, and one what they called a 'brown pekin'. One mallard that was the tiniest and cutest of them all turned out hugemongous, bigger than the pekins, with awkward turkey buzzard wings that got in its way, the poor thing must have been a genetically screwed mix breed, looked a little muscovy in the face. And the 'brown pekin' that was the biggest when young turned out to be a small khaki cambell female.
