    Help with breed identification/sexing 3 month old ducks!

    Hello! First time Duck owner here! We had a broody hen ( no rooster) so we decided to have a little fun and let her sit on some random duck eggs I picked up from someone on Facebook. She successfully hatched two but they look nothing alike! Any help with breed identification or guesses on sex...

    Confused if this is a boy?

    We have 2 ducks we got from tractor supply 6 weeks ago, so I’m not sure exactly how old they are but I’m going to guess 9 weeks? One of them is definitely female, she’s been quacking for a few weeks now. The other still peeps/chirps, and has now developed some greenish feathers on the back near...

    4 weeks old ducklings voice change

    My Pekins are now 4 weeks old and I'm noticing two that are starting to sound a bit different than the others. I know a raspier quack will indicate a male but I also know early voice change most likely indicate a female so now I'm a bit lost and also very eagered to know the sex of these little...

    DNA sexing ducklings?

    I have 9 beautiful ducklings (8 Pekins and a khaki Campbell) that just hatched this week! I vent checked them today (all around 1 to 3 days old) and it gave me 9 females, which lets face it is most likely wrong. I would rather be too gentle than too harsh while vent sexing them, so I probably...

    Sexing welsh harlequin help?

    Hey all, I'm just a bit paranoid that my 7 week old welsh harlequin might be a drake, but I'm very new to raising ducks -- and I've never had a drake -- so I don't know how to tell that well. Here are a few videos I took to showcase the sounds she makes and what she looks like. (There are also...

    What gender is my duck?

    You went to the feed store and fell in love with those cute little webbed feet and those adorable faces. Now, you are wondering what gender is my duck? If your duckling is only a few days old, you are probably going to have to wait a few weeks unless you know how to vent sex (in which case you...

    Male or Female Black Indian Runner (Posted to the Chicken section by accident!)

    (I'm dumb and posted this to the chicken sexing forum instead of the one for ducks, and I don't know how to delete my thread so I can move it; I'm sorry.) Is Twisty a boy or a girl? He is the one making the raspy whistle sound (sorry about all the conflicting duck sounds, this was their first...

    Male or Female?

    I'm not really familiar with sexing ducks. Someone said the feathers near the tail curl if it's a drake? The pics aren't the best, but what do you guys think? Does he look male or female?

    Drake or not?

    I feel like everytime I have a possible drake I go insane with the constant back and forth of "yes it is a drake I know it!" and "okay... maybe I dont know and it COULD be a female..." Needless to say I think I need help. I asked before but my duck was only 8 weeks old at the time so it was...
