Just shoot a nice can and bluebill and would like to know if the pin feather will be to bad to mount or if you guys think they look good enough

They look ok to mount to me. Just be careful with them. Tuck the head under a wing before putting them in the freezer.

They both look like juvie birds to me. The Can definitely is. The Bill lacks the defined vermiculation across its back...might be an old bird still in eclipse plumage.

For comparison...

By the time them scaup get to Florida their backs are solid. Looks a little early to me. Pin feathers may be an issue but it depends on the Taxidermist too.
