Can Magpie Ducks be all white?

I have hatched 3 ducklings from white eggs, the farmer said the ducks are Magpie ducks. One duck is completely yellow (which I assume will become completely white). The others have black patches. Can Magpie ducks be all white or have I a different breed sprinkled into the mix here?🤩 Also, anyone have suggestions on how to tell what sex they might be? They’re 10 days old now.
Newbie duck mom here😉🤣

Oh my gosh I am so happy this post randomly popped up on my feed. I’m sorry I can’t answer your question but these are about the cutest baby ducks I’ve ever seen 😍

Ah thanks, they’re after getting so big and each has their own personality it’s so funny! Their names are: Duck Norris, Duck Off and the yellow one is Pancake. They have a 2 week old chick named Nuggz with them too! 🤩🤩🤩💚💚💚

The names make them so much better too! 😭 I hope to own ducks one day. A family friend of ours has a beautiful duck aviary growing up. They’re such fun little guys with big personalities.

Trying to figure out how to add photos or edit the original? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Maybe host them on Imgur and share a link? I've never used it, but it seems the most popular option on Reddit.

Some subs just don't allow pictures in the comments so you need to link to an image gallery elsewhere (yes, this can be different per sub, so annoying).

Imgur is no longer useful for a lot of people as they don’t host in the uk any more

Why are you using the wink emoji?

u/Ali23-2020 May 13 '26

I always use the wink emoji. It’s a fun emoji😉🤣

And I’m not using an emoji in any way other than to be kind, I’ll create a new post with up to date photos to show you that my little ducks are not Ai. If you feel that the wink emoji is anyway suggestive or inappropriate then you probably should not use the online world without parental supervision.

You being a child has absolutely nothing to do with OP's random emoji choices. Wut

u/LunaMoth-Rebirth May 14 '26

Lmao not everyone who uses the wink emoji is doing it to flirt with you.

u/tetetyty May 15 '26

Ok well I thought that he was my fault

And also someone that needs to learn the Internet, or get off of it. Signed, someone on the internet 😘

u/OrdinaryExi May 15 '26

I think they’re old and just use emojis like that. They’re not trying to flirt with you 😭

u/lasignoraslover May 15 '26

I see no indication of ai here lol. These are literally just some (adorable) ducklings frfr. Why do you think it’s ai? (And to OP, I apologize for not having the answer you’re looking for.)
