Hi

[Celia_ Sleigh]

I'm new here, I do not yet have any ducks or chickens but I help my little brother with his pets Silver appleyards occasionally and plan to have some of my own when I get my own place.

So it is driving me crazy that I don't know if the three ducklings are male or female. They are now about 3 weeks, when can you tell by their feathers and voice. Can anyone post pictures of theirs growing so I can see the difference in male and females at different ages?

All I have are some young Pekins. I still am not sure of sex.

I don't know much about ducks but the folks on the "Duck forum," certainly do. Check them out.

Hello there and welcome to BYC!

Definitely stop by our Ducks section for help with the sexes. I have never kept ducks and all I know is they are super cute and I love the quacking.

Great to have you aboard and enjoy BYC!
