Shelter Strays... Help

[CaliFarmsAR]

I LOVE ducks!!!!

Thanks guys! I had a feeling it was a Muscovy or mix but wasn't sure about sex. Thanks for the hint on the goose!

If it's a female, it will come live at my house after its stray hold is up, likely.

I work at an animal shelter in Alaska and we commonly get strays so if you guys could help me in figuring out breeds when we get stumped, I would appreciate it. If it is ok, I will just keep on this thread vs starting a new one for any additional that we get in.

First up... is a rooster, he's a young one and very fast.

This is a mix. Likely containing Leghorn.

Newest ducklings to the shelter... they kind of look like the prior chocolate runners but they are much smaller than mine when they originally came into the shelter.

Ok... next up 2 adults, possibly female runners. Anyone have thoughts?

I’m not good with ducks, but your guess does seem right to me. You may get more replies if you post the ducks in the duck forum.

From the picture, they look like two female runners. My runner drakes didn't get the curly tail until they were pretty old, though. Are they actually making the quack noise or are they raspier?

Indian Runners but I think they are both drakes.

Got a new one for you... this tiny guy came in as a stray. Holy crap he is adorable, fairly small and compact. Also, I'm unable to add a video... It's kind of screech-y.
