I would cut the palest, greenest one open, see what they look like inside and give it a brief taste. If you bought them as cucumbers, they probably are in the cucumber family, even if they are some kind of cross. They do look somewhat too smooth and non-warty to be a common cucumber at that size. But there are many kinds, maybe you got something more exotic. Can you ask the place you bought them? Not saying you should eat them not knowing for sure what they are, but a taste and spit would tell whether they had the cucumber flavor.
