What duck breed is this

[Aunt Angus]

your duck‘s head and body closely resembles mine. It’s probably a saxony!

Lucky! I really love Saxony drakes! If I were to have a drake, that's what I would get. They are stunning!

definitely a saxony! The people that took this say that these are saxony ducklings. Some really look like mine did

So what about the other duck?

I still think Cayuga since it's so dark.

Is it a Cayuga like I originally thought? It has dark green head and few specks of green on tail, but has black feathers that have brown

Oh ok! Posted reply after u sent that lol

Do you think that it’s a female?

If one’s male and other Is female, can these ducks breed one day? We’re keeping them as pets and would love to see them have duckies one day

That's why I thought maybe a hen, but maybe a hatchery quality drake. They can absolutely breed! Mixed ducklings are fun!!!

And here's my Saxony when she was a baby:

My now a saxony duck might’ve had a niacin deficiency at one point. When we first had it it would run around like crazy, but slowly stopped. It would start walking and then plop down. It would shake while standing. A few weeks ago we got it some brewers yeast and it’s slowly recovering. I thought it could’ve been a runner but we couldn’t tell because it never used its legs
