look at the bottom of the feet. if they are tame ducks the feet will be worn down and callused from them spending most of the time walking. one on the right has some wear on the feet

Thats what I am getting is a mallard/muscovy. Very interdasting for sure. Probably got out of someones backyard. The green wing patch is what is interesting but looking at some pics, muscovies are highly variable and some have the green speculum, so can get lots of different looks on a scovy. Apparently they call these mallard/scovy mixes 'mule ducks' or 'mulards'

Here are a couple that kinda resemble those, red x sorry on the other
