Id duckling breeds

Idk. Pekin are usually very yellow. Fawn and white runners have dusty patches. It might just be the pics??? My runner doesn't always stand up, but as soon as I opened the shipping box, I could tell which one she was.

But I knew I had a runner because I ordered one. You know what I mean?

Never had ducks before so I go back and forth on what they are
I’d have to try to get more pics later. They do have a little darker coloring on their heads. Regardless they are super cute. The crested is a fattie and the other yellows are leaner.

They're ridiculously cute.

I'm NO expert - Haha! I've been a duck owner for all of 12 hours. I could be COMPLETELY wrong!

you are gonna want to make sure nobody breeds with the crested when she gets older if she is a hen. if they pull on the crest too hard she can die

Alright photo dump from today
-Some already ID’d (magpies, mallards, 1 blue Swedish, 1 crested yellow)
-Some not ID’d (3 non-crested yellows and the full gray one)
-The 3 yellows all look roughly the same and act roughly the same in terms of walking, standing, etc. Runners or Pekins? Mixed? I don’t care either way, just curious to see what I wind up with.
-they will get new larger accommodations soon

-All came from a farm store over the past two weeks in case that matters

atleast two are runners

Because I’m a sucker and should not be allowed to go to the farm store unsupervised I brought 3 more home...
-1 fawn/white runner
-1 chocolate runner maybe - doesn't stand upright nearly as much as the fawn/white runner so maybe something else?
-1 TBD - kind of a brown grayish color with the stripes on the face. Could it be a golden 300 hybrid?

Thanks I've been using this as well as the ID my chick on hoovers hatchery. Still not quite sure on a few - guess I'll find out when they get bigger.
