It has an extremely pretty head though lol.

It is very pretty, I am almost positive our 5 week old is a drake hide.gif   It's legs are thick that and it seems so big. But I too have no other to compare since I sold it's siblings. Time will tell.

It's worse than betting on a horse race lol It just has such a girly head but realistically we are ever so hopeful it's a hen so nice to have a different perspective, sigh.. it'll be whatever it'll be tongue.gif we'll keep it regardless for awhile, i have no plans on letting them sit again next year so this will be a one off.

What would you call the color on the light kaki/brn babies?   Notice the tip of the tail is bluish?  Are they lilac/lavender/blue-fawn?  Beautiful!
