I don't know how I missed this thread! I posted on your other one as well, but the short response is that those are not BEI. They are either Khaki Campbells or Campbell mixes. Since you also have Khaki Campbells, the most obvious explanation is that one of your drakes bred one of your BEI. FYI- I have even seen ducks mate through fences before, so even if they were completely separate, it is feasible. The chances that it is a random mutation is about nil. The color of duck you would need to create that would have to carry sex-linked brown dilution and you just happen to have the breed that carries that, so that is the most likely scenario I think. LOL
