bock and lovinlife,
I bought both tan and whites as babies at Easter from the pet store. They insisted they were Pekin. Even when I called them back and said, "NO Way are these Pekin- so what else did you order?"
According to everyone here, they are hatchery quality runners. That is Quackers and Jax, and my most prized and favorite ducks.
Quackers is the tan one with the white ring- my female, and Jax is the white and tan blotched one, my male.
The black one, the grey one and the black and white one all came from the same person who was advertising them on Craigslist. I believe the black (female) is Cayuga. The black and white is Muscovy....so, because I have no idea, I am thinking the HUGE grey one is cayuga/muscovy cross. Male (basing it on he doesnt quack). He is so big- and he has a bit of angel wing, not too much, just a small flop to his left wing. He has some black feathers splattered on his sides here and there, white around his eyes, huge feet. I really hope I am wrong, because Jax(above) is my favorite and I cant seperate them. Too small of a yard. If I get problems with drake fighting, then I will have to find the grey one a home. So far, no problems.
Then I have three muscovy babies and two mallard babies, (not pictured) along with the bigger mallard in the pictures.
