what duck is this?

[mogrl840]

ok so my girlfriend went to the feed store without me today and said they had a lot of new ducklings. She told me they had these two with red faces that someone reserved.. Said it was red on the top by the bill. What ducklings have a red face?

Was it a natural color of the face? or where they dyed like they do for easter i wonder?

They could be muscovies, but usually really young ducklings don't have the red face.

If they are ducklings, they should not have their "red" face yet. How old are they?

 

[mogrl840]

they were a couple days old

They probably just had dye dots on their heads marking wehther their girls, boys, or breed. Ideal Hatchery does this with their ducks. It fades within 3-4 weeks
