Hi, a few weeks ago I bought a pair of Fawn Silver Duckwings. They were supposed to be for my kids in 4h. They were shipped so I didn't see them in person. I've seen several pictures of Fawn Silver Duckwings and these do not look like the variety. Now I've recently heard the Cockerel looks like a Blue Golden Duckwing Sport. What are you opinions? What variety are they???
 
Your pullet is a silver duckwing.
Your cockerel is not a blue golden duckwing sport.
Unsure exactly what he is. Looks more like self blue with autosomal red.
 
They are Fawn Silver Duckwing Sports(homozygous Dun I^d/I^d) just very poor example of them(perhaps the male is Golden S/s+ instead, or red enhanced Silver), but they are based on the Dun gene(I^d)

From Left To right, Khaki Silver Ducking cockerels(4 of them), Fawn Silver Duckwing cockerel(the one with chocolate colored breast), Silver Duckwing Rooster.

What would be my best option to produce better quality? I don't know much about oegb genetics.
