New duck mum after advice was created by bqueen
Hi all,
My name is Rachel and I purchased 6 ,1 day old ducklings 5 weeks ago. They are growing up fast but I am not sure what breed or sex they each are.
The farmer I purchased them from said mum was a Welsh Harlequin, but that he also has Swedish Blues and Cayugas on the farm.
I think I have worked out most breeds but would love comfirmation from someone with more.experience. Please see photos of my babies attached

Hi Rachel, welcome to the forum. 
They're pretty birds. If the parent birds all mixed together, they're not really any breed, just some pretty crossbreds - except if you got lucky with a Welsh Harlequin-sired bird or two.
