I just recently within the last week got 4 ducklings from my local Tractor Supply. They are about 2 weeks old now. I got a little Pekin and 3 other ducklings. They have the same base pattern. Dark stripe across back fatter on the butt, head cap, eye stripes.The brown one is patterned just like the other 2 (whom look very similar) but is way lighter. Any ideas?? I'm a little lost on what these guys are.

I could definitely see the pattern from the golden 300s. How do you tell Drake's from girls tho?
 
With the Golden 300 Hybrids, the male ducklings have shades of black, while the girls have shades of brown. So the lighter colored duckling could be female maybe?

Yep, so my little brown one is a girl And the 2 black ones are boys. Thanks you!
