Preparing to set call and pekin duck eggs! Hatch day should be March 4, 2021 if all goes well!

It looked like Swims speculum was an ever so slightly different shade of chocolate than the rest of her. Of course it may be my phone. Beautiful ducks

It could be! I'm still going to call it brown.

The trio. Captain Hook out front with the dark bill. Beaver back left in the first pic, and Queequeg back right. Not really sure about their coloring anymore. They don't look exactly snowy to me, but they do continue looking freaking cute.

Yes! Love Flip's coloring so much. I can't recall... is Flip a boy or was it Pud?

Pud is a girl. Flip is my Joe Dirt.

Such a perfect name.

I'm really interested to see what color Flip's head turns being as light as he is.

Looks like it's going to be dark when he molts. he's got dark spots all over it now. He's also getting rust color on his breast.

Took these just now. He's got his neck sucked in, but there is a very thick, distinct white collar around his neck.

Here you can sort of see where the color stops.

Puddle is so stinking tiny. Here are all four from batch 2.

Starting with Puddle (dark) and going clockwise: Puddle, Jason, Lidus, Flipper.
