Is there a way to tell the sexes in call ducks? I have 4 that I bought that were from butterscotch parents. i was wondering if all 4 are going to be butterscotch or can I get a different color? Do the males look like males as soon as they get their feathers ? or do they wait until their 6 month molt? I used to raise cockatiels and the males only showed they were true males at that time..
How hard is it to vent sex them? Can someone who has no idea what they are doing, do this?
Thanks for whatever help you can give...

COngrats! Also, Wifezilla put together a great thread about sexing ducks. It's in the sticky at the top of the duck forum.
