I have two Muscovy ducks and I love how quite they are.. but my heartstrings are being pulled .. they haven’t been feeding it proper ducks food too.. is it silly to just get some random ducks ...?

Are they quite? How can you tell if they are drakes or hens at this age? I have two girls.. will it be a problem if it’s a drake?

They are not any louder than any of my other ducks. They have the softest feathers and are relatively friendly. I have 2 females. The males will develop dark head feathers. From what I can tell it looks like a female but I don't know when the males develop the dark colored head feathers. Hopefully someone else can let us know at what age they develop different plumage.

Also.. is something up with its bill? Will the duck have long term issues if it didn’t have proper food?
