Had a bunch more hatch, going to sort thru them today, will try to get detailed pics.
I think I’m changing my vote to Mallard. I was expecting the dark mallard color and spots in ducklings, but these don’t have the spots. I’ve had some Bluish ones hatch without the eyestripes, those I’m assuming will be Blue Mallard. The plain mallard designation here is probably what is Gray in Call duck colors, and those ducklings have the prominent eyestripes.
Also have a few variations on the Buff females from silvery to a tan.
