    I need help identifying sex on call ducks

    these snowy call ducks I thought were all female but now I'm thinking are all males. They do not have a drake tail but their heads seem darker than what the females are. Could anyone help confirm if they are Male or female?

    Advice on a good incubator

    chick bands

    Can someone tell me how do you remove those metal bands that are on the wings of baby chicks. I can't seem to get them off without the babies chirping in pain. And even then can't get them off.
