What kind of ducks?

[lostinthewoods]

I have 5 2 week old ducks and have no clue what breed they are. I won't be able to put pictures on, but hope someone will understand my description. All are black with a yellowish colored chest. All but 1 of them has a knob on their head. Any ideas? Thank you in advance...

Ok, so, maybe I'll have to post some pics on here later tonight.

Well the knob means they are "crested", but that can show up randomly in nearly any breed (and it can be bred for).

At two weeks that coloring could be almost anything -what color are their beaks and feet?

You didn't mention an eye stripe, so some possibilities include: Swedish Blue and Cayuga, they could even be Indian Runners, Muscovies, or mixed breeds. Good luck with them!

They have black feet and a black beak.

Hope that helps. Thanks for the reply

Sounds like Cayuga, or maybe Black East Indie -they'll be pretty as adults!

They look almost identical to those in your pic fowlweatherfriends except for they're crested.

Thanks to everyone for their help!

Sounds to me like Black swedish, they are a great breed

. Your knob head one has a crested mutation, NOT A BAD MUTATION they are beautiful when they grow up! I had a Black Swedish duck but it died when it was 4 weeks old

Sounds like a Swedish to me, too.
