Those are typical and correct Silver Appleyards. Very pretty! Rouens are also a meat breed, so could easily be the same size as the SA. How old are your Silver Appleyards? My mature Appleyards weighed in the 8 - 10 lb range (like 2 yrs old and up), the ducklings weren't that big in their first year.
Oops forgot the dark bills, no, those are not so desirable, but they are definitely SA's none the less.
BTW, I've seen large Cayugas and it looks like yours is just a big one! Nice though.
