Beaker the Muscovy...boy or girl?

I say girl. Legs arent very think, body and tail arent very long and her head is very feminine looking. All of my males have had bulkier heads and necks than that even when young. The females have a sleender sleaker neck and head. So I vote female. She is very pretty!

Thank you for helping this little lady. I always love to hear about a goos soul who is willing to take in a animal in need.
 
So we still aren't sure about hen or drake and are just trying to be patient to let the poor bird finish growing. Been looking for signs of eggs, too. My kid pulled a prank on me, though. He had been collecting eggs for me and left one where Beaker likes to hang out. Sure enough, I went to go put her to bed and found an egg right near where she had been resting. I started to get really excited until my husband shone the flashlight on it...green. It was an Aracauna egg. I got pranked, good.

For those that called Drake - you win! Became evident after we took on a couple of Pekin hens. Let's just say he is clearly all boy.
