Are these drakes?

[DuckyBabies]

Are the two on the left Rouen drakes? I am looking at buying another male and I have to be absolutely sure that it is indeed a drake before I buy.

Yes they are....

Yes they are....

How can you tell from those pictures?

I am seriously doubting my initial impressions of my duck/drakes of what is what. Too young for drake feathers...and the quack noise has me totally confused.

Definitely Drakes with the colours..Not Hens in any way.

Dark heads and neck rings is how I made my assessment.

Dark head and neck with a white neck ring. Burgundy chest feathers coming in. Classic male plumage. My Rouen drake, Noah.

Yay! Thank you! I was hoping there would be at least one drake for me to get
