What have I gotten myself in to!!

I was trying to google the bill colors and I found a few answers (guesses) one post said hormone levels, another said vitamin deficiency, and on a domestic duck page it said its normal for pekins to have bills ranging in color from yellow to different shades of pink. From what I can find even with a pink bill the duck lives a healthy life.

Thank you! Just wanted to be sure it's not something I should be worried about.
 
Niacin. They need extra niacin. Poultry vitamins (I use save-a-chick) are good. They should be on a 16% protein grower feed now, as well. Too much protein can cause problems internally, and with wing growth.
 
They look to be about 2-3 week old Pekins. Cute! Reading through this forum is the best bout of information I've found out there! Good for you in helping them. I agree that at about 6 weeks old they will be ready to go outside. You will be amazed at how fast they grow!
