Are these ducklings Welsh Harlequins?

[barberfamducks]

My family ordered a trio of Welsh Harlequins from a feed store, and we absolutely adore them. However, we're not too sure they are the type we ordered. We specifically ordered Welsh Harlequins because of their temperament and excellent laying capabilities and we don't want to raise ducklings that won't provide that. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Not sure, but the two big ones in this picture are Welsh Harlequins if that helps. At about 1 week. Female on the left and male on the right.

Thank you! They definitely have vaguely different bill colors.

They look like WH. Very cute.

Here are the two Welsh Harlequins we received (3 days old) so you have another reference..

Is their fuzz yellow or is there a darker tint to it?
If it is just yellow, they may be buffs. In which case, they should have a similar temperament, but lay a little less, still good layers, but not as much as a wh.

Their fur does have a slight tint to it, but it's definitely not as dark as gentila's WH.

They look like my WH did as ducklings

That's really reassuring Sfraker! Thank you!

Here are some more pics of them:
