Call Duck gender and color? (pictures)

[Kb1220]

Hi everyone! This is my first time with call ducks. I have four beautiful ones that are about 9 or 10 weeks old by now. I've been reading everywhere that you can tell by the sound of them, however since this is my first time with ducks I'm having a pretty difficult time with it!

Here are the four of them, hopefully the pictures are good enough!

Look for a curling feather on the tail of the duck. That indicates a male. I don't recall when they start getting that curly feather tho...

Difficult to tell at this age.

It looks like Grays and a Magpie?

Voice sexing is very easy at this age:

That link will give you audio of both sexes

you have a black magpie . a grey and the duck in the second to last picture is a blue fawn
by now they should be quacking loudly if they are hens.

They all look like hens to me but the quack will give them away for sure. If they're not quacking u might try picking them up one at a time nd a lot of times this will make them, if its loud its a hen if its soft nd quiet it's usually a drake.
