You won’t be able to tell the sex until they are about 2 months..I have 10 week old Pekins..the easiest way to tell was their vocalism..males make a softer muffled sound and females
Quack very loud

Although I don’t know. My guess with them is based on size. My Pekin males seem to be more quiet, sit down more, and are larger in size. You should start noticing small changes in the females peep from here on out. It sounds like a chirp or bark when it first starts changing.

Would you totally hate me if I gave you unsolicited advice? Your Pekins are right at the age where diet is so important because of their large size. If you have the time and money to give them poultry vitamins in their water 24/7, I would do it. They will be a lot healthier and have less leg problems. I absolutely love my squishy Pekins. And they love food... lol. I wouldn’t trade them for anything.
