In the first lot of three I got two blacks (Swedish) and one white one. The second hatch of four were all blue. I am going to keep one of the black ones, a duck - she is turning out really well.
Yes, I still have them all at the moment

I've got a silver drake, a black drake, two black ducks, a blue duck and a silver duck.
The chocolate ones were hatched from another line of Swedish but turned out chocolate. Means they are carrying a brown dilution gene, which Swedish should not have so I wouldn't call them Swedish. They're not related to my other ducks.

Only the blue one - since only the blue is in the standard. I have put her in two shows. I was hoping to get a show-able blue from the four blues I hatched but none of them look like keepers, unfortunately.

Ah, it's ok.
Most of my adults are good quality but what the offspring look like is the luck of the draw. You have to breed a lot to get a good one with Swedish.
