What colour are my Indian Runner ducklings?

Hi.

I just took new pictures of my ducks, so I'm posting some today...

My Porcelain Indian Runner hen - at the center of the picture :

She told me she was "the prettiest of them all"...!

...Not a good picture, but... :

Her back :

Her front :

With her girl friends... :

And :

In my opinion, she really had ended up turning to be the most beautiful out of these three girls...

I am still not actually 100% sure she is Porcelain and not Blue Dark Dusky, since one picture of each of these colours don't really help so much...
...but I'm going with Porcelain, because she does look too light to be Blue Dark Dusky.
(But whatever, since I will probably know for sure next year, given I will have both colours in my ducklings if I am lucky!)

...Drake is here :

Hi.

I have just taken new pictures of my Lavender Dark Dusky coloured Indian Runner hen.

(Reminding here she is the 3rd duckling in the first post of this thread...)

So - at the center of the picture :

Let's not forget : what I call "Lavender Dark Dusky" is "Apricot Dark Dusky + Brown".

None of her feather are gray - even the lightest ones.

I plan to make ducklings of the same colour next year, but - if possible - with a BLACK bill.
The drake I will use for it has a black bill, so I hope part of his ducklings can inherit it...?
