,,Saxony

If it looked like a mallard when small its not a saxony. Saxony ducklings are all yellow.

I agree.

Thank you! The breeder I went to had a few different breeds, but all of them were housed separately. I didn’t see all of them, though. I wonder if there was a mix up? Or somehow there was some cross-breeding? She incubated the eggs if that makes any difference.

Here are some pictures from the day I picked up my friends.
It was in a bin with much darker but similar marked ducklings. I actually picked this one out because it was lighter!

It will be easier when it gets its next set of feathers. If that was a picture as a baby I'm not sure.

I honestly can’t wait to see what my friend matures into. I wonder if it’s a mix? It’s hard to get in pictures but my mystery duckling is much bigger than my swedish. They supposedly only hatched about a day apart.
