We came home from the local fair with two ducklings last night. Problem is, I know nothing about raising ducks. (I am normally a chicken momma!) I don't know what kind they are, how old they are or anything.

I've been up most of the night reading on here, so I've learned a lot. Can someone help with approximate aging or breed?

Thanks so much in advance and I promise not to be a bother with questions.
 
I'd say at least 1-2 weeks.
Also, the black one looks like a black Swedish. The other one almost looks like its standing straight up like a runner, but I can't tell 100% from the picture.

I think they are around a week old. They don't have any of the tiny little tail feathers they get around 2 weeks or so.

You have a black swedish and a runner, though not sure on color. Seems to have a bluish hue, so could be a silver runner or some variation of blue.
