Hey y'all! I'm new to the duck world & need help sexing my ducks. We have 10 ducks that I believe are Pekins. I didn't know what angle would be the best, so I took a bunch of them in their pen & on the way down to our pond. I hope it helps & I hope y'all can help me! Oh, if we've got any females, when should I start looking for eggs, where should I look for 'em, & what should I keep an eye out for (nesting wise) since they go down to the pond every day?

Hi, we have 2 Pekins. I don't know if this pertains to all ducks, but I've noticed that our female has a lighter colored beak, more of a tan instead of orange. Just thought I'd mention that

. How old are yours, HuntEmUp?

I'm not quite sure on their age, but I think they may be around 2-3 months old
 
Ok, I'm no expert but to me most of them look like females. But like I said, I've only ever had 4 Pekins

Once full grown femalest have a voice more of a "quack!" While males sound more like "gweek, gweek" and also have little curled feathers on the tail
