    New to ducks! Is my duckling a girl?

    I’m trying to figure out if my welsh harlequin is a boy or a girl. She’s about a month old, so I don’t know if there’s a good way to tell yet.

    Greetings fellas, first time duck owner here. I have an 8 1/2 week old Welsh harlequin. I got them when they were 2 days old, and was told they were a male, but I’m sort of conflicted because I read that you can determine the sex by bill colour when they’re young, and they had a female bill. I...
