Can anyone tell me if these are male or female Kacki Campbell ducks? They are about 10-11 weeks old.

Thank You. Will they hurt my hens?

...Duck hens, or chicken hens...?

For duck hens :

It would depend on their number and on your boys' behaviour...

But even if you have a 1-1 ratio, I really don't think you actually need to worry until mating season...

For chicken hens :

Yes : your drakes will eventually hurt them IF you don't have duck hens to mate with them...

And even if you have girls for your boys, you still will need to keep them separated from the chickens AT LEAST for the next mating season, given drakes' libido is generally out of control during their first one... (turning them into serial rapists)

► Drakes, contrary to roosters, have a penis... and a chicken hen's body is NOT made for it!

So, if a drake mate with a chicken, he can severely hurt her, or even actually KILL her - very painfully and bloodily...
