I've got nine babies a month old and they're new feathers are coming in, is there any way to tell what sex they are by feathers yet? We want to keep one female.
 
You'll want to keep at least a pair. Ducks do much better in groups rather than alone, especially since shes been raised with a group.

Around 9 weeks you should be able to start to tell the difference in gender. Rule of thumb is that the females will have the dark bills and males will have light bills, but this is not always correct especially if they are hatchery/production WH.
So you can voice sex them. Females will have a loud quack, males will be more raspy.
