Good morning all!
I currently have 8 ducklings, about a month old, that I need to determine the sex of. I am planning to keep two of them but I can only keep females because I already have three adult ducks two of which are males. I am aware that I should have more females than males which is why I really want to make sure the two ducklings I keep are female.
My sister and I tried vent sexing one of the ducklings last night and are pretty sure it is a male. But I was hoping to get some guidance and tips on the best way to sext them at their age. We unfortunately cannot wait until they are older to find out because we are bringing the remaining 6 ducklings to their new home by the end of the week.
I am new to sexing ducks so I would be really grateful for any help to make sure I am doing it safely and correctly.
Thank you! And I attached a photo of the babies from this morning for you all to see!
