They hatched they hatched! Mallard Ducklings. One an unusual colour?

Thanks so much to everyone on this forum who have helped me over the past few weeks with all kinds of newbie questions.

I had to make safety holes in all 5 eggs (2 of the 7 quit) but they did the hatch on their own between 7:20 and 11:55 this morning.

Here they are! I’m totally in love with them! Can anyone confirm if the pale one is actually a mallard? It’s colour is really different to the others!

thanks!

A couple of them I bought from eBay to keep the original egg I rescued company - I may contact the seller! Thanks!

Sounds good! It's very cute. Let us know what the seller says!

Kind of hard to tell but the gray one looks like my Blue Swedish when he was a day old. I don't have a great pic to show coloring as they had a red heat lamp but I attached a stock pic.
