They're beautiful! I especially love the white striping on the eyes of the one. The black ones are surprising, I never would have guessed they were a cross.

I do, too, I think he looks really unique!​

I'm afraid not, I was a kid and had to sell her (the whole group, really) to the feed store when she was a week old. ):

My Mallard drake has been topping my Pekin gals for a little over a week now. A week ago I started cracking the eggs open to check and every single one has been fertile. I am sitting here looking at my Pekins' last 6 eggs and soooooooo tempted to get the incubator out LOL

Your ducks are beautiful!!!

I bred a pekin hen to a white crested drake and the baby has the same pattern as your black babies!

We have quite a few Pekin-mallard hybrids at the lake I go to. I just took photos of some today. I think one might be 1/2 mallard, 1/4 Pekin and 1/4 runner. I've known him since day 1. He's 12 weeks old now and got those short runner wings. I will post a photo of him later.
