Thank you for your replies! I appreciate it! I’m trying to get experience from all around :) A couple weeks have passed and I am pretty certain that Calypso is female. I had decided to do a little dna test to compare companies as well. Iq bird testing has been wrong 3 times within the past few...
Update: I ended up rehoming Cream and Squiggles as there was someone who reached out wondering if they were still available. I was sad to see them go but they are in a good home now and with other ducks. I am keeping Calypso because I believe she may be female. I will continue to post pictures...

Off-topic but if they do happen to all be male is it possible just to keep them in my...
I forgot to mention, I know some people try to tell by feather growth but from what it seems Calypso (the one that looks more yellow and darker on the back, not the black one) may have some new pin feathers coming in on the wings. The (wing) pin feathers aren't too noticeable on the other ducks...
Hi! I recently got some Muscovy ducklings from a from a friend due to a poor hatch rate with my Ancona ducklings (only 1 hatched). I am curious to see if you guys have any guesses on if any are female or not. They just turned 4 weeks old. I have attached some pictures below. The one with the...
