Here are some more pics. The white duck has fine gray penciling on her back and has gray on her head just above her beak. One of the mallard colored has a teal blue speculum and the other's is navy blue, almost black. Is this unusual? How long will it be before they have their adult plumage?
Those are really nice! They look like really good quality to me, especially compared to the ones that I have. I am going to try to find some really good eggs to hatch next year to get those short bills~
ANNOUNCEMENT: Funky Feathers Fancy Poultry Farm is closed until 2016. Due to heavy predator losses and too much on my plate. We sold off the remaining birds back in May and tore down all the pens. In the meantime we will be rebuilding from scratch. I will still be a BYC member, but mostly just lurking and observing the progress of my favorite breeds (Splash Cochins & Butterscotch Call Ducks). I will be enjoying my Photography biz, jewelry making and hanging out in nature. Hopefully in 2016 I can acquire some awesome birds that meet or exceed the quality I had.
