    Sexing ducks (Pekin, Khaki Campbells)

    I have 3 Pekin and 3 Khakis of which I have an idea but am not totally sure of sex. I also have three Mallards - 2 already have green heads just waiting on the third to get older so I can tell.

    Ducklings of different ages

    Duckling breed identification (photos)

    I started a flock hoping for layers not realizing specific breeds serve specific purposes. The first three ducklings I bought from the feed store were definitely Pekins (maybe Jumbo's) about 14 days old now. We got 4 more the following week, they're about 6 days old now. I'm having trouble...
