Indian Runner ducklings: Blue female x Fawn & White male ducklings

[Goosey Girl]

I haven't seen any photos or much discussion on colors of mixed Indian Runners. Of course they won't be pure, show birds. But, thought others might be interested in seeing the variety. I'll post more photos when they grow their adult plumage.

I'm expecting at least some mixes of runner. Blue, black, chocolate and also Rouen/Khaki Campbell in there.

They are adorable and are you aware that they are sex-linked. The girls will have the sex-linked brown allele and will have brown or golden yellow down. The boys will only have black and have blackish gray or yellow down. Because of the runner pattern they should be amazing looking as adults. I look forward to seeing more pictures (please).
