We gained 5 new khaki campbells but this guy looks different from the others

The drake in the front is a normal Khaki Campbell and has two brown alleles. The one behind him has blue speculums (wing patches), so one or no brown alleles and is most likely a Khaki mix or a dark Campbell.

He may just be a khaki, they come in the mallard color!

Wait, there are other Khaki variations?

Other Campbell’s besides Khaki. I suspect mix though, there shouldn’t be a white neck ring. The drake in the back was the one you were referring to, correct?

I saw you mentioned dark Cambell because we only have a khaki Campbell.
so I was wondering if there were other Campbell variations...

The drake with the blue on his wings is NOT a Khaki Campbell.

Oh, what is a dark Campbell?
I feel silly now

According to Storey’s Guide to Ducks, dark Campbell’s have the same genotype ad Khaki Campbell’s except they do not have the brown allele. I really think you have a mix though.

Well one of them (i believe the drake in the back) looks exactly like a mallard, not a khaki Campbell...sorry if that’s already been established
