Help sexing Muscovy ducks

[Daphne_loves_mealworms]

Lovely Muscovies! I can’t help you with sexing. My own two ‘Scovy babies (maybe a week or two younger than yours) are still a mystery. I have heard, however, that foot size has something to do with it and that, if you can compare all of the feet, those with bigger feet will most likely be male. *shrug*

All the legs are the same thickness. The feet as well. I'll try and get pics of them in the morning. I read online you can tell by the trail. If it's u shaped it's female and a v means male.. Idk tho.

All of mine have the same shaped tail. So, I think that info is just a coincidence to whomever wrote it.

Idk if it helps but 2 out of 4 little ones have more red on thier face.

So, when you look at your muscovy ducks from the front are all of their legs the same thickness? From the angles posted, the grey one still looks thicker. But, it is still hard to tell. The differences in caruncles could be indicative of different sexes too.
Like this one's leg?

@dotporter has muscovies, maybe they can chime in.

Here's mine at almost 3 months old. There should be a significant difference in bodies if all from the same hatch. My drake is the one in the front. The black pied.
