Fawn is indeed chocolate :) So yes, you can use them to make sex links. However the blue involved can make it harder to see in the duckling down.

Waterfowl can often carry MG without showing any symptoms - sometimes the only thing that they show is a drop of fertility. You can always test the ducklings if you want to spend the money - there's a lab called Zoologix that will test samples you send them.

Generally speaking, a lot of black bibbed and pied ducklings. Some would be blue bibbed and pied, from the blue swedish.

I have been summoned! Lol. If the drake is Blue Swedish, they'll all be blue bibbed, silver bibbed, or black bibbed. You can narrow down mom on the silver bibbed ones because they'll have to be from a blue swedish OR the buff to get that other blue gene. Buff is actually a color that can...

Chocolate is recessive and sex-linked, so females need only one copy to be chocolate, but males need two.

Indeed it does! Or rather, it makes the white pattern. The color of the other feathers is affected by color genes, so it could be black like that, or it could be any other color. More than 30, haha. Calls alone come in more colors than that. http://www.callducks.org/store/p34/Variety_Posters.html

Nope, even white is different! So in mallard ducks you have pied as its own gene, and a solid white duck is a separate recessive gene, right? In muscovies it's all one incompletely dominant gene. One copy makes a bird pied, and two makes a bird white. But then there is ALSO a recessive gene...

Muscovies are actually a totally different set of genetics to mallard derived ducks so I'm not as good on their genetics - BUT chocolate is the same. I do think you have two or three chocolate ones in there.
