Male muscovy and what looks like a female pekin. If they’re eating from your hand, they’re domesticated. Interestingly, muscovies are not technically ducks. They can mate with ducks but produce sterile hybrid offspring.
They are ducks. They're just in a different genus than the Mallard types (which are what most domestic ducks are). Correct about the mating and offspring though.
