Swedish Duck Color Genetics

[sthwnd]

Hi all. I'm currently incubating my first batch of Swedish eggs. Father is a Blue, mothers were both silver splashed. Does anyone have an idea of what colors I could expect? A photo of my guys is attached, don't mind the other 3, the Welsh, Khaki & Call drakes in the picture, they found a new home. My Buff geese are George & Gracie . They are also young, & just beginning to breed & lay I'm thinking since my ducks are heterozygous for color most likely, that I could get all 3 colors, but I'm not sure. Has anyone ever hatched with these colors? What did you get?

Should get blus and silvers. Shouldn't get any blacks. Silvers carry 2 blues, blues carry 1 and one black

Hi! Of the 2 that successfully hatched, both I believe are going to be splashed silver . We restarted the incubator with the last dozen. I'm going to add black babies from a different bloodline this weekend so we have some genetic diversity to the flock as they all mature later this year, and some blue from a third source in about 2 weeks. This way they aren't inbred. Thank you for the info!
