Drake feathers ?

[Apyl]

I went outside this mornging to take the everyone's weekly pics. My Pekin is now 6 weeks old (in another post I said she was 7 weeks but I double checked the calander and I was wrong). So while I'm out there I noticed she has two tail feathers that look like they are starting to stick up. So here are a couple pics, do they look like the start of Drake feathers ?

(I keep calling her "she" lol because all this time I thought she was a girl, she has a LOUD quack and makes noise constantly) And yes the pool is getting changed today, after DD's dentist apt so I dont go smelling like poop lol.

Not drake feathers. Drake feathers look curly. Also, if she QUACKS and not whispers then its a girls.

I post from my phone, so if I don't have a link to YouTube I can't view tour video. Here is a photo of my Rocky, his drake feathers are hard to see because of the grass, but it will give you an idea.

Definetly sounds like a hen.

Here's my drake, his drake feather is no more though, not sure who yanked it out, himself or the Muscovy drake when they tussled one time
