    Need help identify duck breed?

    hello I’m hoping one of you can help us identify what kind of ducks these are. We saved one from a local duck pond (left on the sidewalk) and two my husband got from a local duck farm. Also can you tell if they are male or female yet or can you not tell until they are older? Thanks in advance!
