The yellow one almost looks like it has brown on its head.... like a fawn and white. But size will tell real soon , pekin is prob more likely.
Althought our tsc has had quite a few runners so far this spring

Looks like it could be
Could be a cayuga as well. Hard to tell yet. How does she walk?

They both walk tall but they're super small, so it's hard to tell, and i thought those other two were runners but it turned out a Pekin and I'm pretty sure a blue swedish like you said (though the possible blue swedish stands tall still, but I'm not sure if it's tall enough to be a runner). Yeah my second guess is a Cayuga.

Okay yeah a week or so and it will be easier. And if the yellow is a fawn and white runner it will stay smaller . Pekins as you already know grow big fast

Aww cute. Yeah stil looks like swedish to me, just cause i cant figure out what else it could be lol My khakis stand tall when they hear something and walk tall when walking away alot of times. But no where as tall and straight as a runner hopefully one of your new ones will be a runner.

Yeah. I know it's a long shot but could it be a blue runner?

I will try to find some old pictures of a runner i got last spring. That turned out a really silvery color. And had this same color beak. I think if the blue ones dont come out blue they get put in the mixed duckling bins.
But most hatcheries are not show quality so its possible yours is just is built a little heavy. Yours just isnt really built like the runners i have seen.
And yours looks pretty similar in size to your pekin?
Or is it just the picture?

It's skinnier and smaller than the Pekin and stands taller. I might just have to wait until it's feathered out to find out what it is, but I'm guessing blue swedish

Yeah hopefully another couple weeks and it will be more obvious
