Hey all, new to the group and first time raising ducks and chicks we are loving it so far!
We have 2 ducks, 1 pekin and possibly another pekin or a white layer. My question is they around 9 weeks of age, very little fluff left to them.
Neither have the distinguishing drake feather but the noises or "quacks" are slightly different.
Any help on gender would be great! Really hoping for 2 females.
The larger duck (known as Quackers) with the darker bill does make more noise, and will have more of a "quack" at times. The smaller duck with lighter bill (known as Pippy, possible white layer??) Has a more high pitched 'peep' sound still.
I will try and attach a video of them.
