Her colors is just about gone and all my pics of when they were babies is lost due to computer crashing. I can't remember who told me her color was blue fawn been a while.

Blue Fawn is blue and chocolate "mixed" together in one bird.

From my understand, mixing chocolate in is how we get lilac.

Blue Fawn is just the "blue" version of the wild color (as in blue/black/splash)... wild with one dose of blue.

Lovely pictures!
I know nothing about colors, so can you or someone tell me the difference between lilac and blue fawn?

In mallard derived ducks, lilac is chocolate with one copy of blue. Blue fawn is gray, or 'mallard', with one copy of blue.

I just yesterday hatched a couple blue fawn and blue bibbed ducklings; I'll have to get pictures! Here's a quick shot of the blue bibbed:

3 of my girls decided to sit just a few days apart. Now I have 21 ducklings.
This is 2 sisters with 16

I was told that this duckling's color was a blue fawn. She's a runner.
