I received my first ducklings straight from Ideal hatchery today. I bought 3 cayugas, and 4 hatchery choice. I'm not a duck guru so I need some help identifying them. 2 of them appear to be the same cute little yellow things, one is crested of some sort, and one is brownish, yellow. Here they are...

Yellow ones l=kinda look like Welsh Harlequins the crested one looks to be rouen? And the brownish one seems to look like A Khaki cambell? Im not goodd with breeds quite yet but thats my guesses!
 
1. Crested mallard

It has the darker lines near the eyes than the rouen, so it looks more like your duckling in the pic!

2. Golden 300 Hybrid layer???

It sort of looks like the darker ducklings of the breed.

3. Welsh Harlequins

Scroll to the pic of the duckling. It is defiantly a welsh harlequin!

They're all so cute!

i got hatchery choice from ideal three weeks ago. the yellow ones look exactly like mine and they were not obviously runners when i got them but now at three weeks old i am sure they are runners. they now stand very strait and tall. i thought my brown ones were khaik campbell but one of them has developed a tan ring around neck and stands strait and tall too.
